When it comes to buying a home or investing in property, the need for complete and clear information cannot be overstated. It’s not just about finding the right space—it’s also about knowing that every aspect of your potential new home meets your needs, from connectivity to safety. That’s why we, as your trusted estate agency, take our obligations under the Trading Standards Material Information Rules very seriously. Our commitment to these standards ensures that every listing provides you with the material facts necessary to make an informed decision.
Enhanced Transparency with New Features
We’re excited to announce the rollout of new features that will significantly empower your property search and selection process:
Mobile Phone Signal/Coverage: Wondering if you’ll have strong mobile coverage in your new home? Worry no more! Our listings now include property-specific mobile signal coverage information, sourced directly from Ofcom. Whether it’s voice or data, indoors or outdoors, for all the major providers, you’ll have the details at your fingertips.
Broadband Availability: Fast and reliable internet access is a must-have in today’s connected world. We’ve enhanced our listings with Ofcom-sourced, real-world broadband speeds and availability data for each property. Before you even visit, you’ll know if the broadband meets your streaming, gaming, or work-from-home needs.
Flood Risk Information: Understanding the environmental risks is crucial. Our new feature offers a detailed look at the flood risks associated with each property. With data from the Environment Agency integrated into our property pop-ups, you’ll find comprehensive flood risk assessments and helpful links to further information, all based on the most up-to-date and accurate data.
Knowledge is Power
These enhancements aren’t just about meeting legal requirements—they’re about giving you power and peace of mind. With these tools, you can better gauge the suitability of each property. Will you have the connectivity for a home office? Is there a flood risk that could affect insurance premiums or peace of mind? By providing this information transparently, we’re helping you build a complete picture of your potential new home.
