Pre-purchase area report

Know the area before you offer.

Found a place you like? Before you make an offer, get the full picture of the area — what homes there actually sell for by type, crime and flood risk, energy and running costs, schools, broadband, your commute, and whether the asking price stacks up against the live market. One clear report, checked by a person, from £29.

What's inside

Everything you'd want to know about the area

Compiled from official, open UK data sources and a plain-English read at the end. Not a survey or a mortgage valuation — the area intelligence a buyer usually can't get in one place.

💷 Value by property type

What detached, semi, terraced and flats actually sold for here — adjusted to today's money, with a range.

📈 Is the price fair?

The asking price checked against recent sold prices for that type, plus how the market's moving.

🚔 Crime & 6-month trend

Recorded crime within ~1 mile, by category, and whether it's rising or falling.

🌊 Flood risk

Long-term flood zone plus any live Environment Agency warnings.

⚡ Energy & running costs

Typical EPC band, floor area and annual energy cost for homes in the postcode.

🎓 Schools & 🚉 stations

Nearest primary and secondary schools, and nearest National Rail stations with distances.

🛣️ Your commute

Real-traffic drive time from the property to a place you name — work, family, wherever.

📶 Broadband & 👪 who lives here

Broadband speeds available, plus the area's tenure and age profile from the census.

🌦️ Weather & a map

Monthly temperature and rainfall averages, and a clear location map.

Who it's for

Three moments this report earns its keep

1

About to offer

You've viewed it, you're serious, and the clock's ticking. Get the things a listing won't tell you — before the offer, not after the survey. This is the £29–£49 that argues with a £400,000 decision.

2

Weighing up areas

No house yet — just "is this town right for us?" Order a report on any postcode, no house number needed, and it reads as an area report. Comparing a shortlist of two? The Shortlist Duel — £39 puts both head-to-head with one verdict: email the two postcodes.

3

Buying from a distance

Relocating, coming back from abroad, or buying for family — you can't do the drive-past-at-night check. This report is your eyes on the ground: noise, nuisance sites, what the wind carries, and how the street really lives.

Selling your home? A seller's edition — know what buyers will find out before they do, and put your side of it on the record — is coming. Ask to be first in line.

The important bits

Terms, refunds & your data

Who you're buying from

These reports are sold by Jackson, a service of NoFooly (sole trader — [legal name to confirm], [contact address to confirm]). Questions or complaints: [email protected], and we'll reply within 2 working days.

What you're buying — and what it isn't

An indicative area report compiled from official UK open data plus a plain-English summary, delivered as a PDF. The total price shown (£29 or £49) is what you pay. It is not a survey, mortgage valuation, or legal advice and doesn't assess the condition or legal title of any specific property — always get a survey and professional advice before you commit.

Cancellations & refunds

Each report is made to order for the postcode you give. When you tick the consent box at checkout you ask us to start straight away and agree that, once we begin, the standard 14-day right to cancel for a change of mind no longer applies. You're still covered where it matters: if we can't produce your report, you get a full refund; and if a report we've sent contains a genuine factual error in the data, tell us within 14 days and we'll correct it or refund it. Nothing here affects your legal rights.

Your data & privacy

To make your report we use the postcode and property details you enter, and the email address you give at checkout (collected by Stripe) to send it. Payment is handled entirely by Stripe — we never see or store your card details. We don't sell your data or use it for anything but preparing and delivering your report and keeping a record of the sale. Want your details removed after delivery? Email [email protected].
