Site Development Appraisal

Whether it’s a small extension or a large scale development project, it is always helpful to understand the planning potential and challenges that relate to a particular site.

SM Planning site development appraisals carry out a detailed assessment of a site/scheme, answering important questions such as:

• Is the land suitable for development?
• What are the planning restrictions?
• What are appropriate mechanisms to maximise use/land value?

A well-researched and prepared appraisal and development feasibility study is a well-structured document containing the relevant opportunities and constraints. The aim of the document is to minimise uncertainty and to identify issues in advance of the preparation of any planning application.
