Pop in a postcode and pick the home. See what it sold for, its energy certificate, the flood areas and planning protections around it and the crime recorded nearby.
Built on Land Registry, EPC, police and planning data
The things worth knowing before a viewing, in one place, each from the people who publish it.
Official open data: HM Land Registry's sold prices and house price index, the EPC register, the Environment Agency, the government's national planning data and police.uk. Each part names its source, and the small print at the bottom carries each one's credit.
A home shows up here if it's sold since 1995 or has an energy certificate. Plenty haven't done either. Press "just show the postcode" to see what's around it anyway.
No. It's the last sale moved with the house price index, the same sum as our house price calculator. It can't see the home's condition or anything done to it since, so ask a surveyor or an agent for a figure you can rely on.
Not very, on purpose. police.uk places each crime at an approximate spot to protect the people involved, so the figures describe the area around the postcode rather than any street or home.
Not necessarily. A conservation area or an article 4 direction can limit what changes without planning permission, especially outside. The council decides, so ask its planning team about anything you have in mind. The national planning data doesn't cover every council yet either.
No. We fetch the answers, show them to you and keep none of it about you. We don't ask who you are either.
Everything on this page comes from official open data, as its publishers released it. We add the layout and, for the last sale, the house price index's sum. Sales cover England and Wales since 1995, energy certificates are the assessor's, and the planning data doesn't cover every council yet.
It isn't a valuation, a survey or a legal search. For a purchase, your conveyancer's searches and a survey are what to rely on.

Most delays in a house sale are not caused by the buyer, the survey or the lender. They are caused by a document nobody can find. This is the full list of what a buyer's solicitor will ask for, what each one actually proves and what to do when one has gone missing.
Planning permission and building regulations are two separate systems asking two different questions. A job can need one, both or neither. This is how to tell them apart, which one produces a certificate and why a buyer will ask you for it years later.
Energy bills are written for the supplier's billing system rather than for the person paying them. This is what every line actually means, which numbers are worth your attention and the handful of checks that catch a bill charging you for energy you did not use.
