Land promotion firm with freehold base in Sunderland

About this business

A land promotion firm in Sunderland, active since 2019 and based in a freehold unit on an industrial estate. It works with landowners across the North East to bring land forward for housing and commercial use, earning fees and a share of sale proceeds. Turnover has grown every year, from £2.67m in 2021 to £3.3m, but EBITDA has slipped from £248k to £213k as more has been spent on bringing new land forward. A team of 7 covers planning, land and finance. The property is included, and the asking price is £1.125m.

Key investment highlights

  • Turnover up every year to £3.3m
  • Freehold unit included
