The council is working to improve its understanding of the level and type of demand from people who are looking for land to custom or self-build their own home within Wirral.
Self-build is where you are directly involved in organising the design and construction of your own new property.
Custom-build usually involves working with a specialist developer who will design and construct your property for you.
The council is creating a register of people or associations who are interested in self-building or custom-building a home in Wirral. The register will help us understand the level of demand for self-build and custom-build plots so we can develop a strategy for matching people to plots in their area.
You can register your interest by completing a short online form.
Latest information on land available with planning permission for housing can be viewed in the council's latest monitoring report ('Wirral Committed Residential Sites' refers).
