FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Conversions, land appraisals, feasibility, planning, costs and joint ventures, answered plainly.

What does Bricks‘N’Mortar Property Development & Investments do?

We explore new-build development, property regeneration, residential conversions, property investment, land assessments, maintenance and housing support.

What types of properties do you consider?

We welcome enquiries about suitable land, residential properties, existing buildings for conversion or refurbishment, new-build developments and possible investment partnerships. Every opportunity is assessed individually.

Can you explore converting a large house into flats?

Yes. The number of flats depends on the building's dimensions, condition, layout, access, natural light, ventilation, fire safety, planning requirements and building regulations. A feasibility assessment is needed before the layout can be confirmed.

What is a land appraisal?

A land appraisal is an initial review of a site's location, characteristics, possible uses and development potential. It does not replace professional surveys, planning advice or a full feasibility study.

What is a feasibility study?

A feasibility study considers whether a proposed development is practical and may be financially realistic. It can include estimated costs, potential property values, planning requirements and project risks. It cannot guarantee approval or financial success.

What affects planning permission?

Planning decisions depend on the site, proposed use, design, local policies and other relevant factors. Building regulations, fire safety and other technical requirements may also apply.

How much does property development cost?

Costs depend on the property, location and proposed work. They may include purchase costs, construction, professional fees, planning, finance, insurance and contingency allowances. An estimate requires information about the specific opportunity.

Do you guarantee investment returns?

No. Property investment carries risks, and we do not guarantee profits, rental income, capital growth or a particular return.

How can landowners and investors contact you?

Email info@bricksnmortarpd.com. Please include the location, type of property and a brief description of the opportunity.

How do joint ventures work?

A joint venture involves two or more parties working together on an agreed opportunity. The arrangement may cover land, funding, ownership, responsibilities, risks and potential returns. The terms should be clearly documented with suitable professional advice.

What information should I provide?

Please provide the property location, current use, approximate size, intended purpose and any available plans or photographs. Sensitive financial or personal information should only be shared when necessary and through an appropriate secure method.

What happens after I submit an enquiry?

We review the information, request further details if necessary and consider whether a discussion or additional assessment may be appropriate.

Where appropriate, a member of the team may contact you to discuss the opportunity and possible next steps. An enquiry does not guarantee that a project will proceed.

Can I book a consultation online?

We intend to introduce online booking for virtual consultations. Until then, email info@bricksnmortarpd.com to discuss a possible meeting.
