  • Development Potential & Equestrian Use

"Hi Paul, now that the dust has settled, I thought I drop you a line to express my sincere thanks for your assistance in selling my house and land. When you first came to see me I recall you telling that there would a problem – you didn’t not know what the problem would be, but you knew that something would crop up as it always does - and you were right !!   Anyway I am so pleased that were able to step in and make it all happen, you acted so professionally at all times and knew exactly how to deal with things. Without your help I am sure it would have been 10 times more stressful ! Thanks again, Jan"

Morning Paul, Alex & Joe well what can I say !! You guys smashed it out of the park on this one, with an absolutely stonking result in last night’s Auction which makes me well-happy. Despite me being distracted with overseas business,  you persevered and took control of the situation. Your team conducted all the viewings and ultimately found me a suitable buyer, and as a thank you, I’d like to take you and your whole team out for beers and a curry. Let me know when suits.

  • Location: Goldenhill, ST6
  • Vacant Land
  • Potential for development

‘I purchased the subject land via the BJB Auction in 2021 with the intention of submitting a planning application.  However my circumstances changed and I contacted Alex at BJB Land & Development who advised on the best strategy to achieve a sale. Alex’s proposal included obtaining a drawing and selling via Auction, which worked a treat as the land sold within 6 weeks of instruction. In summary, I am both happy with the result and the service provided by Alex & the team. I would recommend BJB Land & Development moving forward.’

  • Potential for Alternative Uses

‘I would like to say thank you Alex and Joe for selling my land which had been sat on the market with another agent for a long time with little interest. You managed to gather a significant amount of interest in a very short time, resulting a pre- Auction sale, at a price significantly higher than the guide. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome.’

  • Location: Silverdale, ST5
  • Garden Land
  • Potential for a Single Dwelling

"We initially consulted with Alex from BJB Land & Development with regards to a parcel of surplus garden land. BJB put into place a marketing strategy which looked to maximise the sales value through a supplementary planning appraisal report and drawings. Alex guided us through the entire process and worked with us through an initial unexpected setback which was outside of our control and that of Butters John Bee. His tenacity, professionalism and expert knowledge in land sales undoubtedly led to our recent completion of a sale at a price we were pleased with. Butters John Bee were a pleasure to have worked with."

BJB took into consideration our current circumstances and put together a marketing plan to reflect this. We ended up agreeing a sale in excess of the guide price prior to auction, with a swift completion taking place just 4 weeks later. We would recommend the services of BJB Land & Development to anybody looking to dispose of their development opportunity."

"We rang Butters John Bee as we wanted to sell our land which has development potential. Paul Beardmore went out of his way to meet us at a  time which we were all available and explained all the options open to us. It was a lot more complicated than we had originally thought due to a historic title issues and Paul helped us find a suitable solicitor to deal with this for us. Paul dealt with all the viewings, obtained a list of offers and liaised with our solicitor until the sale completed and we received the money. We were very happy with the outcome.

  • Location: Newcastle, ST5
  • Former Care Home
  • Potential for Conversion to HMO

“We spoke to BJB about selling our former care home which is located close to the hospital. We knew that there was potential for a conversion to residential apartments and the like, and so we needed an agent that understood this market. I am so pleased that we used BJB as they dealt with the sale process and knew all the pitfalls! After a few hiccups we sold the property post Auction for a price which we were happy with. We would use BJB again, Many thanks.”
