1LINE Utility

1LINE Planning

Find where planning is about to create value — with the evidence, and what still needs checking.

Covers England only.

What it does

Portals show what’s for sale. This shows where planning is moving.

Describe what you are hunting for in one paragraph — the council area, the kind of opportunity, the scale, your budget and how long you can hold. Or describe one site you own. 1LINE Planning reads the councils’ published brownfield registers, local plans and constraint records, and scores every site against your brief.

Unlock the full report to see your shortlist of up to four real sites, where each sits on the Planning Value Curve, why it scored as it did, what is established, what is inference — and exactly what to check before you spend a penny.

Example input

“Brownfield sites for 5–150 homes anywhere in Nottingham, looking to buy and hold for 2–5 years. Budget around £750k.”

What it looks for

Four ways planning creates value.

Brownfield & register land

Sites the council has already recognised as suitable for homes — some still waiting for permission.

Permissions to check

Permissions over three years old, flagged so you can check whether they started, stalled or lapsed.

Conversion & change of use

Smaller sites that suit conversion briefs — with Article 4 restrictions shown where the council publishes them.

Catalysts & the local plan

Recorded infrastructure projects and where the council’s local plan sits in its cycle.

Designed to sell you a listing

The council’s local plan position, from the record

Every score explained — and every unknown named

Independent — nothing to sell you

Built for clarity. Not planning advice.

Indicative intelligence.
Not a planning consultant’s report.

1LINE Planning reads published planning records for England. Sites are planning signals, not properties for sale; ownership is shown as a type, never a name. It is not planning, legal or investment advice and promises no permission or return. Before buying land or applying for permission, use a qualified planning consultant, solicitor or surveyor.

England only. Nothing you type is stored. The decisions remain entirely yours.

Free first. Unlock when you need it.
