On my land? On my terms………

 Your land may be important to others because it is in a perfect position for situating apparatus or for connecting services to adjacent land with development potential.
 

If a company approaches you with a request to place equipment such as a telecoms mast, wind turbine, sewers, water pipes, cables or other apparatus on or through your land speak to a specialist property lawyer before allowing access or agreeing to any terms.

 

Landowners are often under the misapprehension that it will be straight forward to negotiate amendments to an agreement after work has started – this is not the case. Documentation from utility companies or service providers is often in a standard format and the opportunity to make substantial amendments is limited. It is important that you seek professional advice at the outset: whilst the promise of a lump sum and/or a yearly rent can be appealing, there may be restrictions applied to the future use of your land.
