What is an option agreement?
This is a simple 5 page agreement enabling MyBackGarden to invest in planning application on your behalf. This provides both parties with the comfort and security of our full commitment.

Why should I trust mybackgarden that has a sister company who is a property developer?
Welcome Homes plc already has a substantial land bank and only develops in WS6, WS11 and WS12. If your land is of interest to Welcome Homes plc, you will be made aware at the first meeting. As three local independent estate agents are used chosen by youself, you can be assured the true land value is established.

If mybackgarden does not develop the land, how do they make any money?
Once planning permission has been awarded, MyBackGarden will arrange for the sale of the land by formal tender to three property developers. The successful purchaser will pay MyBackGarden a commission in the region of 4% of the land value.

What happens if I want to obtain planning permission but not sell until 10 years time?
Via our Option Agreement, when you sell in 10 years time MyBackGarden will be notified of when you intend to sell the land and will arrange the sale by formal tender to three property developers based on the increased valuation, reflecting current land values
