FAQ
-
We put design first. That means better use of your site, stronger planning proposals and developments that respond properly to their surroundings.
-
We identify the best use for your site, develop the right scheme and manage the planning process. Securing planning permission can significantly increase its value.
-
We consider a wide range of opportunities, including brownfield land, greenfield sites, underused buildings and residential or commercial sites with redevelopment potential.
-
We offer three main routes: Promotion Agreements, Joint Ventures and Direct Purchase. We’ll recommend the best approach for your site and circumstances.
-
Not always. With some Promotion Agreements and Joint Ventures, Rooted can cover the upfront design, survey and planning costs.
-
Every site is different, but the process typically takes around 6–18 months from initial appraisal through to a planning decision.
-
We focus on energy efficiency, low-carbon materials, biodiversity, good design and future-proofed construction to create better, more valuable places.
-
We assess the reasons, respond to the council’s feedback and determine the best next step, whether that means redesigning, resubmitting or appealing.
-
Yes. Vacant, outdated or underused buildings can have significant potential through refurbishment, conversion, change of use or redevelopment.
-
