Why Sustainability Matters to Us

At Hometrack, we believe that building resilient, climate-aware property ecosystems is not just good business; it’s essential for the society and environments that underpin the property markets. As a provider of climate risk insights, property valuation data, and decisioning tools, we have both the opportunity and the responsibility to lead by example.

Driving Cleaner, Greener Homes: Embedding Climate Intelligence into Mortgage Decisioning

Hometrack’s market-leading Climate Risk Insights toolkit empowers lenders, investors and portfolio managers to make sustainability-aligned decisions by integrating climate risk directly into property evaluation and risk strategies. Our solution blends current and forward-looking data on hazards such as flooding, subsidence, coastal erosion and energy performance, providing climate risk scoring and comprehensive climate change portfolio assessments to our clients.

Built to integrate with automated valuation models (AVMs) and mortgage platforms, this functionality accelerates decision flows, supports capital provisioning, and helps financial institutions make more climate-aware, compliant lending choices, transforming environmental challenges into measurable components of property risk management.
