About

We chose Newton LDP because of their terrific reputation within the development land sector. They handled the sale of the neighbouring site to ours and have strong links with a lot of housebuilders in the area along with expert local knowledge across Warwickshire. Richard and Piers were extremely professional and utilised their experience and insight of the market to conclude a positive deal – and one which wasn’t straightforward. Because of their integrity, they were able to iron out any niggles on the way without me having to worry about how things were developing. I am delighted with the outcome achieved and very pleased with the way it was handled. I look forward to working with them again in the future.

Richard was hands on with his approach, his confidence, respect and knowledge of the local market was evident early on, which was of great benefit to us when we were looking to negotiate the land sale. After a period of negotiation led by Richard, we agreed on a price which was considerably higher than the initial offer from the developer. It was thanks to Richard’s knowledge, experience and tactical negotiation that ensured we were able to agree on a sale at this level. I would whole-heartedly recommend their services and would like to personally thank Richard and the team at Newton LDP for their attention to detail and due diligence throughout this process.

I can’t thank Richard and George enough for the support they gave my elderly parents to help them obtain planning on the farm they had lived in for over 60 years. They were very respectful of my parents personal nervousness alongside being very knowledgeable of the market place. They managed the whole process professionally on our behalf. These environments are rarely straightforward and their level of communication, advice and negotiation throughout the process was faultless. We would unreservedly recommend their services, and in fact have done to several other people already. Thank you Richard, George and team.

William has always been on the end of the phone to give good common-sense advice and support across all facets of our business, and is hugely respected by all three generations of the family for his considerable knowledge across the board. We thoroughly enjoy working with him.

I would describe Richard and George as the ‘dream team’, both bringing their own knowledge, skills and approach to a far from straight forward land sale with multiple stakeholders. They were always approachable and considered in their views which enabled things to run smoothly. I always felt confident in speaking with them over any concerns, and continue to work with them with the next stage of the development. Thank you to Richard, George and the Newton LDP team, and without doubt recommend their services. Great team, very knowledgeable and build strong relationships.

George is very professional and personable. He went over and above what we expected from an agent throughout a very protracted deal. He always knew what was going on and provided us, as the property owners, with regular information on progress with fulfilling complex planning conditions before completion.

It was an absolute pleasure to work alongside Richard and Piers on the disposal of our site at Chipping Norton to Cala Homes. Their attention to detail and tenacity throughout the sale process allowed all aspects of the transaction to run smoothly, with completion taking place just six weeks after solicitors were instructed. We would highly recommend their services and were delighted with the outcome, especially in challenging market conditions. We very much look forward to working with Richard and Piers on the next phase of the project.

I have worked with Newton, alongside my other professional trustee, for a number of years now. Recently, the first phase of the wider scheme was sold to a national housebuilder, which was a complicated and protracted deal. Throughout the process the team at Newton provided us with regular updates and we worked closely with them to ensure a successful completion.

We have worked with Richard and George for a number of years, on various different projects, so we were delighted that they acted for us on the sale of some land in Oxfordshire. Having sold us the site freehold over ten years ago, they knew the site well. Coupled with their extensive knowledge of the Oxfordshire market, they were best placed to act on our behalf. In a tricky market they managed to generate a competitive bidding process, with over fifteen offers received. They worked closely with us during the sale and legal process and were on hand to help iron out some last-minute unforeseen matters, ensuring the transaction ran smoothly. We look forward to working with the Newton LDP team again in the future.

Newton LDP managed the sale of a key strategic asset for our business in late 2025. As the site comprised a former car factory with several industrial buildings and tenants in occupation, the marketing and sale therefore needed to be handled sensitively. The team fully understood the brief and delivered a smooth and timely disposal, always with close attention to detail—particularly regarding access arrangements and the ongoing use of a retained community facility. We valued the collaborative way in which the team worked with us; they were consistently available to address queries and provided clear, regular updates to our directors and shareholders throughout the process. We have no hesitation in recommending Newton LDP.
