Frequently asked questions

What can I check on HouseCheckup?
Search an address in England, Wales and Scotland for an initial area risk screen. Paid reports are emailed to you: Lite is £9.99 and Complete is £24.99. The report names the sources and any checks it could not complete.
What does a HouseCheckup report include?
The Complete report brings together available flood and ground risk, price history, matched EPC data, crime, schools, transport, heritage and neighbourhood context. Sections depend on the available records, and coverage gaps are explained.
Where does HouseCheckup get its data?
Reports use public sources including HM Land Registry, the Environment Agency, EPC records, police.uk, ONS and the British Geological Survey. We cover England, Wales and Scotland. Coverage is not identical in each: some official sources publish for one nation and not another, so every report names the checks it could not run at your address rather than scoring them as a pass.
How much does a full property report cost?
Lite costs £9.99 and Complete costs £24.99, each as a one-off purchase. Check the pricing page for current availability and scope.

Still have a question? We typically respond within 24 hours.
