How much to offer on a house? Know the facts first.
Send us the listing. Within 48 hours you'll have what the street actually sold for, compared like for like by size, plus flood risk, boundaries, condition checks and the questions to ask the agent. The evidence is ours to find; the decision stays yours.
Checked by a person, not just a computer. Facts, not advice: we never tell you what to offer.
Everything you need before you offer
Sold prices, like for like
Recent sales on the same street, as paid and per square metre, side by side with the asking price. No spin and no recommended figure.
Condition checklist
What to look for at the viewing and which certificates to ask for: electrics, boiler, damp, roof and asbestos, with typical repair costs.
Flood risk at the exact house
Rivers, surface water, reservoirs and planning flood zones, measured from the house itself, not the postcode.
Plot and boundaries
Land Registry boundaries drawn on a map, so you know what you're actually buying.
Sun and garden orientation
Which way the house faces and how the sun moves across the plot through the year.
Costs and area
Stamp duty, council tax, energy rating, broadband, crime, schools, planning nearby and likely rent.

What buyers ask us
How much should I offer on a house?
Start from what similar homes on the same street have actually sold for, compared like for like by size, condition and how long ago they sold. The asking price is set by the seller and agent; sold prices are what buyers actually paid. Your report sets out that evidence for the exact house. We don't suggest a figure: the offer is your decision. For the method step by step, read our free guide: how much to offer on a house.
Will you tell me what to offer?
No. We give you the facts: what nearby homes sold for, how the asking price compares, and the risks and costs we found. On some streets the asking price is above every recent sale; on others it's in line or below. The decision is always yours.
Is this a valuation or a survey?
No. It's factual research from public data, it doesn't recommend a price, and we don't visit the property. You should still get a survey, use a solicitor and rely on your lender's valuation.
What do I need to send?
The listing link and anything you're unsure about. If you've viewed the house, your own photos help too.
How quickly will I get my report?
Within 48 hours of payment.
Which areas do you cover?
Any house in England. We started in Calderdale and Kirklees, and the same public data covers the whole country.
