Design & Build Process
This may be your first time at buying land and commissioning the build of your own bespoke premises for your business. It is a big decision that needs to be made knowing the process involved and how long it is likely to take from start to finish.
The infographic below charts the main steps in the process from start to finish. We estimate that it takes between 9 to 12 months and our agents are very experienced in guiding customers through it step by step.
