DEVELOPMENT CONSULTANCY

Development Agency

BTF’s Development Agency service offers practical, in-depth support to landowners, developers, and promoters across every stage of the development process. Our expertise spans site feasibility, viability assessments, land assembly, and option and promotion agreements, with a focus on unlocking long-term value and navigating planning complexity with confidence. We provide robust residual land valuations, financial modelling, and guidance on Section 106 negotiations, always tailored to the specific needs of the site, its constraints, and market potential. We don’t offer generic advice—we deliver clear, commercially grounded strategies backed by local knowledge and a strong track record across the South East. Whether you’re seeking to promote land, structure a joint venture, or prepare a site for disposal, our consultancy is independent, informed, and outcome-focused.

REPRESENTING YOU THROUGHOUT

Our Services


Feasibility & Viability Assessments

We assess development potential early on, factoring in planning policy, physical constraints, local infrastructure, and market demand. Our financial viability appraisals help inform decision-making, secure funding, and support planning negotiations.


Landowner Agreements & Promotion Strategy

We advise on structuring agreements between landowners and developers or promoters, including option, promotion, and hybrid agreements. Our goal is to protect your interests while maximising land value and maintaining flexibility throughout the promotion process.


Land Assembly & Strategic Site Advice

Where multiple land parcels are required to bring forward development, we assist with land assembly—coordinating agreements, negotiating with neighbours, and ensuring a coherent and deliverable scheme with strong planning prospects


Residual Land Valuations & Financial Modelling

Our team delivers robust residual land value assessments using detailed financial modelling. These support land negotiations, internal investment decisions, and inform land value for taxation, sales, or strategic planning purposes.


S106 Negotiations & Development Appraisals

We support clients in negotiating planning obligations, infrastructure contributions, and Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) impacts. By balancing development viability with local authority expectations, we help ensure consented schemes remain commercially deliverable


Development Agency & Site Disposal

We act as agents in the sale of development land, advising on timing, marketing, conditional offers, and buyer due diligence. With strong regional knowledge and a network of active developers, we help secure the right deal at the right time.
