Evergreen Rural provides RICS-regulated rural chartered surveying and land management in Petworth and across the surrounding West Sussex countryside. Working from our office in nearby Hurstpierpoint, just 19 miles away, we give farmers, estate owners and rural landowners practical, down-to-earth advice on managing, letting, valuing and caring for their land and property.
Petworth is quintessential estate country, home to grand parkland, deer park and large rural holdings, where experienced estate management makes all the difference.
As chartered surveyors rooted in the West Sussex countryside, we understand the land around Petworth, the people who work it and the pressures they face, from succession and inheritance tax to diversification and conservation. Our RICS, CAAV and ICF credentials mean your holding is in experienced, professional hands, while our local base keeps our advice personal and our response quick.
Yes. From our base in nearby Hurstpierpoint we look after farms, estates and rural properties throughout Petworth and the wider West Sussex countryside, so friendly, local advice is always close at hand.
Since 6 April 2026, Agricultural Property Relief and Business Property Relief give full 100 per cent relief only on the first one million pounds of combined qualifying assets, with 50 per cent relief above that. We provide the up-to-date land and property valuations and practical land advice that sit alongside your accountant or solicitor, so your family can plan succession with confidence.
Yes. The Sustainable Farming Incentive is reopening as SFI26 during 2026, with more support aimed at smaller farms and new entrants. We help you understand what your land is eligible for and prepare applications for SFI, woodland creation and other environmental schemes.
Possibly. Biodiversity Net Gain is now a planning requirement for most new development, and landowners can create and sell biodiversity units to developers who need them. We can assess whether your land is suitable and talk you through the options and the long-term commitments involved.
We carry out RICS Red Book valuations for sale, purchase, tax, probate, lending or dispute. With the farmland market softening a little through 2026, an accurate, independent valuation matters more than ever, whether you are selling, refinancing or planning ahead.
