Our recent successes
The Land Team secured a significant number of new land opportunities last year – success that has carried forward into the start of 2023. The team worked incredibly hard to achieve this, and a big thank you also to our network of agents who’ve been involved in these transactions.
Wates Developments is actively looking to secure land which has planning potential. Take a look at our requirements below, and please contact a member of the team for further information.
