Buying Land
If you are thinking of buying land in the UK as an investment there are a number of factors that you need to take into account.
First you must ensure that the company offering the land for sale actually owns the land, they should have the title deeds for the land and these can be checked at the land registry.
You should also ensure when buying land that you use a solicitor to ensure that everything is above board and the transaction goes smoothly.
When buying land as an investment you should ask as many questions as nessecerry regarding futher plans to gain planning permission and also on passed performance of land sold for investment purposes.

Buying land is a simpler process than buying a house, once you have brought the land and got the title deeds for the land you will need to sign these and send them off to the f HM Land Registry with a cheque for £40 for their processing fee.
You will then be the legal owner of your land and you will receive proof of title in your name directly from the HM Land Registry.
