Specialist services
At Carter Jonas, we recognise that achieving planning permission is more than just being policy compliant. It is about understanding a wider range of local social, economic, political and environmental factors and applying that knowledge to influence a favourable outcome.
Likewise, achieving best value for the sale of development land is dependent upon the right approach in the right circumstances and our Residential Development Team are experienced in designing bespoke, site-specific disposal strategies, designed to ensure delivery of a successful outcome.
Our aim is to provide friendly, accurate and meaningful advice in order to assist our clients and deliver enhanced value. We pride ourselves in the delivery of a bespoke service tailored to individual needs.
As part of a multi-disciplinary property business, we can also offer an integrated service by working in collaboration with our commercial, rural, energy, waste & minerals, infrastructure and masterplanning colleagues. We can bring together the right expertise from across the firm to suit the needs of any project. We believe this sets us apart from other conventional planning consultancies and land agencies.
