Land Sourcing
Sterling uses its extensive network to match Reliable Purchasers with suitable land opportunities, customising its approach to meet client needs.
With Sterling’s extensive network of end operating users and development partners, we have the buying power across a wide range of Use Classifications to match the right end user to the right land opportunity.
Appreciating one size doesn’t fit all, understanding the client brief and your desired outcomes forms a key part as to how we match our land sourcing approach. Sterling is not a ‘volume’ based business – we pride ourselves on a bespoke approach, making sure that our land sourcing activities are fully qualified, with landowners which are engaged to sell, under appropriate terms.

What we do
- Client meeting to understand business strategy and bespoke requirements relative to your site / land sourcing needs
- Desk based and ‘on the ground’ research to identify suitable targets, matched to brief
