Thinking of approaching someone who owns a plot of land to see if they'd sell it as a building plot.
There's no planning permission on it at the moment, and wouldn't want to buy it if planning isn't granted.
Now, if I could agree a price with the owner to buy it with planning permission if permission was granted, is there a way to legally secure the sale to myself at the agreed amount within a set time if I applied for planning permission myself, or am I open to the risk of doing the legwork for someone else only to have them sell the plot to someone else?
