New · Opportunity Screen

Stop guessing where to look.

Tell us an area and the kind of site you want. We screen every registered land parcel against the constraints that kill schemes and the councils most likely to say yes, and hand back a ranked shortlist of where to look.

A screen, not a clearance. Any area in England.

How it works

From an area to a shortlist, in three steps.

Step 1

Tell us where, and what

A council, a town, or a set of postcode districts — plus the size of site you want and anything you need to avoid.

Step 2

We screen every parcel

We run all the registered land parcels in that area against 24 national constraint datasets and each council’s own measured behaviour. Nobody checks every parcel by hand.

Step 3

You get a ranked shortlist

The parcels that fit, ranked, each with a plain-English reason, a map, and a one-click route to the free planning check and the title at HM Land Registry.

We ran the whole of Kent — 6,500 candidate parcels across 13 councils. Filter it by size, tier and council, or open a sample of the pack you would receive. Your screen covers the area you choose, anywhere in England.

The deliverable you receive: the ranked shortlist with a plain-English reason per parcel, the ownership route, and the full list as a CSV.

We rank land two ways nobody else does.

Sourcing platforms rank by who owns the land. We can’t tell you that, and we don’t pretend to. Instead we rank by the two things that actually decide whether a scheme gets built.

Constraint depth

Every parcel checked against 24 national datasets — Green Belt, flood zones, ancient woodland, protected wildlife sites, scheduled monuments, registered parks, common land and more. The parcels that survive are the ones not already hobbled by a designation.

Council behaviour

We overlay each council’s measured median decision time and its Housing Delivery Test position — so land in a council that decides quickly, or one where the national presumption in favour applies, rises to the top. That is the difference between a site that stalls and one that moves.

What the Opportunity Screen is — and isn’tIt is a screen, not a clearance. It narrows a whole area to the parcels worth a proper look; it does not clear any of them. Council-published designations can be missing from national data, so the absence of a constraint is never an all-clear — every candidate still needs checking. It says nothing about who owns the land or whether they would sell: ownership is a £7 title from HM Land Registry, and we point you straight to it. Every figure is dated and sourced. Not a valuation, not planning advice.

Then take any parcel further.

Free planning check

Run the free check on any candidate — its constraints, the council’s speed, recent decisions and sold prices. Free, no account.

Check ownership

Buy the official title from HM Land Registry, £7. We hold no ownership data — you get it from source.
