Two surfaces, one Property

Public Passport content is designed for discovery: enough to understand the Property story without exposing private Documents. The owner-controlled experience is where sensitive evidence and workflows typically live, behind authentication and permissions.

What buyers should assume

If a fact is not shown publicly, it may still exist privately, or it may not exist yet. Ask questions early and route evidence requests through your conveyancer when appropriate.

What sellers should assume

Publishing more is not always better. The goal is accurate, proportionate disclosure aligned to professional advice—not a dump of every file into a public URL.
