Why Symonds
& Sampson?
Throughout the region, demand for
development sites remains strong, both
from large construction firms looking
for multiple sites and from individuals
wishing to self-build.
We have a record of success in the New
Homes market with high demand seeing many
properties being reserved or sold ‘off-plan’.
This growing demand shows many buyers are
favouring new and eco builds over an older
property. The reasons might include energy
efficiency, lower maintenance, modern design
features and warranties.
Whatever your
requirements we can
help
Symonds & Sampson are far more than your
average estate agency, offering a full range of
professional services from identifying sites,
obtaining planning permission, to selling your
new homes.
When embarking on a new development
project, having a reliable agent at your side is
essential. Our industry experts can be with
you throughout, they have the local knowledge
combined with the professionalism and
expertise to be able to guide you through the
process.

Preparing a
site for the
market
Understanding the Gross
Development Value (GDV) at the
concept of development is key.
Whether the starting point is a green
field, or a site already with Planning
Permission, the combined expertise
within Symonds & Sampson’s
professional departments will ensure
that the appropriate actions are taken.
We can advise whether full or outline
planning permission for a site is the
most appropriate, and give consideration
to Section 106 contributions, low cost
and/or affordable housing allocations.
These decisions are all factored into
calculating the GDV, and ultimately
gaining the most appropriate planning to
maximise the value of the site.
In establishing the likely value of the
land, we will also evaluate the best
method of achieving a sale. Private
Treaty, Tender (informal or formal) and
Auction are the most common methods
of sale.
We look forward to receiving your
enquiry via our Development Land
and New Homes teams in Poundbury
01305 251154 or Sherborne 01935

With an eye for spotting opportunities,
our residential, agricultural and commercial

The Planning
Town & Country Planning is an everchanging
and evolving system and we
have a team of consultants who have
the skills and expertise to guide clients

The Design
Symonds & Sampson’s Building Survey and
Design team are able to prepare the detailed
drawings required to accompany a planning
application and oversee the new build
with the preparation of technical drawings
and specifications for Building Regulation
requirements.
We also regularly work with architects where
clients have an existing relationship in place.

Buy to Let
A new home as a buy to let is
certainly an attractive prospect
– the building will normally
have a (10 year) warranty, the
maintenance will be lower and the
property will be presented well.
Our Letting Agents are able to assist
Landlords with the many different
stages of Buy To Let including providing
initial advice, through marketing the
property to tenants moving in.
We successfully let and manage a range
of property throughout the region on
a variety of letting and management
services.
We are regulated by RICS in respect
of professional standards and the
holding of money, governed by ARLA
Propertymark (Association of Residential
Letting Agents) and the industry
Ombudsmen, and staff are trained to
ARLA Propertymark Technical Award
level.
Our aim is to develop long-term
relationships and we always look
forward to welcoming new clients.
