Free address search across England and Wales. No account needed.
19.4 million searchable properties. EPC, flood risk, sold prices, planning, and more in one structured record per home.
Front-load what slows conveyancing
EPC ordered, boiler service history gathered, Planning and building control documents for extensions, FENSA or similar for windows — these are requested repeatedly.
Be consistent
Facts on the agent particulars should match the title and the forms your solicitor sends. Inconsistencies trigger enquiries and delay.
A persistent record
Keeping a single property-centric digital record avoids rebuilding the folder on every move.
Look up any UK property
Search by postcode or address on [Property Passport UK](/search) to see EPC, flood risk, sold prices, and more for any of 19+ million properties in England and Wales — before you offer or list.
