Development Appraisal

Plainview Planning can help you assess your chances of securing planning permission for a development site.

We can quickly tell you what you can build, whether you’ll get permission and what it will cost. Our development appraisals contain:

  • Planning history of the site
  • Review of site constraints/opportunities
  • Current and emerging Local and National Planning Policies
  • Estimate of final end value
  • Indicative 3D sketches of a scheme
  • Aerial photography and OS Maps

Each report is tailored to your specific requirements and can be ready when you need it.

We can provide fast estimates of final end value and sketch up example schemes within hours. We always approach developments with a sense of realism – we know what can be achieved and how to achieve it.

Honest advice

Honest advice

We provide honest up-front advice about your project. If you do not have a good chance of success we will tell you. We think our honest approach to projects is why our three year success rate is 89% for all our applications, appeals and enforcement work.

Our team of planning experts are familiar with all aspects of the planning system, and prepare application and appeal documentation that is robust and persuasive.

Fixed Fee

Fixed Fee

We aim to be very transparent with our fee structure. All projects are on a fixed fee basis, and invoiced stage-by-stage.

There will never be any nasty surprises like photocopying charges, mileage allowance or additional hours.  What you see on a Plainview Planning quote is what you pay. We believe in clear, simple billing for all our clients.

Clear timelines

Clear timelines

We believe in a simple and clear approach to all projects. At the beginning of every new case we break it down into clearly defined stages, with appropriate goals and milestones. This is discussed and agreed with our client from the outset.

We provide regular updates to our clients during each stage, and are always available to discuss your project.
