For Developers & Landowners
The Difference
Most estate agents sell new homes. I understand them. My career began in housebuilding, working with developers across Yorkshire to bring new schemes to market. I know how sites are planned, how homes are specified and how buyers make decisions about new build properties.
That background means I bring something genuinely different to the table. I am not simply a sales agent, I am a development partner who can advise at every stage, from land acquisition through to final plot sale.
If you are a developer or landowner in Wetherby, Harrogate or the surrounding villages, I would welcome a conversation.

What Carol Offers
I have spent my career at the intersection of housebuilding and estate agency. I understand how new homes are built, priced and sold, and I bring that knowledge to bear on every development I work with. From a single plot to a phased scheme of twenty homes, I manage the sales process with the same personal rigour I apply to every instruction.
Before a single brick is laid, the decisions you make about specification, layout and pricing will determine the success of your scheme. I work with developers and landowners at the earliest stages, advising on what the local market wants, what buyers will pay, and how to position your development for maximum appeal and minimum time on market.
Pricing a new homes development is not the same as pricing a resale property. I draw on 30 years of local market data, an understanding of buyer psychology and direct experience of how new homes are valued to help you set a pricing strategy that is ambitious, credible and commercially sound.
One of the most effective tools for unlocking new homes sales is an assisted move scheme, helping buyers sell their existing home in order to purchase yours. I manage the entire process, from valuing the part-exchange property to overseeing its sale, so your buyers can move forward with confidence and your sales programme stays on track.
The launch of a new development is a critical moment. I work with you to plan and execute a launch strategy that generates early interest, builds momentum and creates the sense of demand that drives sales. From show home presentation to portal listings, buyer events to targeted outreach, every element is handled personally.
If you own land with development potential in Wetherby, Harrogate or the surrounding villages, I can introduce you to the right developers and housebuilders. My long-standing relationships across the Yorkshire development community mean I am well placed to find the right partner for your site.
Sites & Plot Sales
This is an area I am actively looking to grow. If you own a small site with planning permission for two to ten homes, or a single residential plot you are looking to sell, I would welcome a conversation about how I can help.
Selling a development site is different from selling a family home. Buyers are developers, investors and self-builders, each with different priorities and timescales. Getting the marketing, pricing and negotiation right requires an understanding of both the residential market and the development process.
My background in housebuilding means I understand what a developer is looking for when they assess a site. I can help you present your land in the best possible light, reach the right buyers and negotiate a sale that reflects its true potential.
Whether you have a plot with full planning permission or outline consent, I can advise on realistic pricing, identify the right buyers and manage the sale from instruction through to exchange.
Small residential sites require a targeted approach. I work with you to understand the planning position, the development potential and the likely buyer profile, then market the site to the developers and investors most likely to proceed.
Pricing a development site correctly from the outset is critical. I draw on 30 years of local market knowledge and an understanding of development economics to help you set a realistic and commercially sound asking price.
Not every site sale needs to be publicly marketed. I have long-standing relationships with developers and investors across Yorkshire and can often identify the right buyer quietly, without the need for a full open-market campaign.
"I started my career in housebuilding. I understand what developers need, not just someone to put a board up, but a partner who knows the product, knows the buyer and knows how to get a scheme sold."
