The need for new housing is the most talked about and most contentious element of planning. Applications for residential development usually require a significant amount of project management, coordination and supporting information. A well prepared planning application supported by robust planning arguments and supporting information will ensure that your scheme has the best chance of a smoother ride through the planning system.

At ELG we have considerable experience promoting residential development through the planning system and our clients include national housebuilders, SME housebuilders, registered providers, contractors, residential developers and landowners.

Our experience ranges from project managing submissions for large urban extensions to dealing with individual houses for private clients. We regularly project manage the planning element of large developments for housebuilders starting from advice on the planning prospects of a site through to the preparation and submission of the planning application and then post approval assistance on the discharge of conditions and any subsequent amendments.

We provide specialist consultancy services to the residential sector in the following areas:

• Planning Applications

• Housing Land Supply Assessments
