A FAMILIAR QUESTION

“Do I have to set everything up today?”

No. Start small, resume unfinished setup and add more floors or records later. Explore a sample home first and see what feels useful.

01

Give the home a place.

Set the address and country, review available property information, and add rooms, floors and outdoor areas.

02

Make it recognisable.

Use a PDF, plan image or photographed sketch, arrange rooms manually, or scan on supported LiDAR devices. Illustrated rooms and pins help people find things.

03

Keep your homes within reach.

Manage more than one home, with different roles and permissions. Pin a home, switch between them and see the combined list needing attention.

THE DETAILS CONNECT

More useful.
Together.

A room becomes a place for equipment, documents and repair reports. Available property and area information adds context, while the history grows from the records you save.

Information about the property12 useful details
  • Council tax band and council.
  • Available council tax charges.
  • Energy rating and certificate details.
  • Registered floor area.
  • Compare registered area with saved scan area.
  • Rebuilding-cost estimate and breakdown.

  • Available plot size and outline.
  • Available age, building type and bedroom information.
  • Available main-fuel information.
  • HMO licence matches for review.
  • Named sources, lookup dates and missing-data messages.

These are currently UK-focused lookups with different coverage by nation and address. A rebuilding estimate is not a market valuation or survey. A missing licence match does not decide whether a licence is required.

Information about the area11 useful details
  • Flood-risk information where supported.
  • Conservation-area information.
  • Green-belt information.
  • National parks and protected landscapes.
  • Nearby listed buildings.
  • Planning applications at the address and nearby.
  • Broadband availability information.
  • Nearby state schools and links.
  • Local Housing Allowance rates.
  • Published area house-price figures.
  • Save a published area rent figure with its date/source.

Some results describe a postcode or area, rather than this exact home. Flood lookup coverage is currently England; nearby listed buildings do not establish this home's listed status. Local Housing Allowance is not a suggested market rent. Broadband availability is not a speed guarantee. Published area figures are not a valuation of this home.

International foundations7 useful details
  • UK, US, Canada and Australia home records.
  • Ireland and New Zealand home records.
  • Home-specific currency and time zone.
  • Local date, money and phone formatting.
  • Local floor names and certificate terminology.
  • Country-aware local-service links.
  • Regional rental guidance where implemented.

The current guidance covers England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, Ireland, New Zealand, California, New York State, New York City, New South Wales, Victoria, Ontario and British Columbia. That is not complete coverage of every US state, Canadian province or Australian state. The app is currently in English. Automatic property/area lookups do not yet have equivalent coverage in all six countries.

A FEW USEFUL ANSWERS

Before you
get started.

What can the app find about a property?

Where available: energy records, council tax, registered area, tenure, age, rebuilding estimates and other sourced facts. Area information can include planning, broadband, schools and published area figures. Coverage and the source date are shown.

Can I use it for my own home too?

Yes. Keep your own home and rental properties, with owner, manager or tenant roles as appropriate.

Are all features available in every country?

Home records support the UK, Ireland, US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. The app is in English, and local guidance, terminology and automatic data coverage differ by location.
