Who We Are
Kingswell – Your Trusted CIL Experts
At Kingswell CIL Consultancy, we specialize in providing expert guidance and tailored solutions to developers, architects, planning consultants, and homeowners navigating the complexities of the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL). Our team has extensive experience working with local authorities across London and the UK, ensuring our clients achieve compliance while minimizing unnecessary costs.
We understand that CIL regulations can be complex, and miscalculations can lead to significant financial liabilities. That’s why we take a proactive, strategic approach to help our clients manage CIL obligations efficiently and cost-effectively. Whether you’re assessing liabilities, seeking exemptions, or challenging a notice, Kingswell is here to support you every step of the way.
CIL Exemptions & Reliefs
Reducing or Eliminating CIL Through Exemptions & Reliefs
Many developers and homeowners are unaware that their projects may qualify for CIL exemptions or reliefs, significantly reducing or even eliminating their CIL liability. However, strict rules and deadlines apply—missing a key step can result in a full charge being applied.
We Help Clients Secure:
- Self-Build Exemptions – For individuals constructing their own homes or extensions.
- Social Housing Relief – For qualifying affordable housing projects.
- Charitable & Non-Profit Exemptions – For organizations meeting certain criteria.
- Exceptional Circumstances Relief – For developments where CIL charges make a project unviable.
At Kingswell, we guide you through the entire application process, ensuring all necessary paperwork is submitted correctly and on time to secure your exemption.
Our Experience
10+ Years of Expertise in CIL Compliance & Strategy
Although Kingswell was established in 2024, our team brings over a decade of experience in CIL consulting, having worked extensively with local authorities, developers, and property professionals across the UK. We have successfully helped clients reduce liabilities, secure exemptions, and navigate disputes, ensuring their projects remain financially viable and compliant with CIL regulations.
We have advised on residential, commercial, and mixed-use developments, from small self-build projects to multi-million-pound schemes in London Boroughs impacted by both Mayoral (MCIL) and Borough CIL (BCIL). Our in-depth knowledge of CIL calculations, exemptions, and appeals allows us to identify savings opportunities that others might miss
