Local housing authorities

Every Local Authority needs accurate, independent, information about their local housing market – including affordability, rents and price trends. This data is essential in informing housing and planning strategies. 

Our analytics, tools and reports are trusted by over a third of UK housing organisations as an integral part of setting policies and making investment decisions.

Dashboard tracks 20 key market metrics across your portfolio to give you rents, affordability, house price and new build market intelligence at your fingertips. 

Housing Intelligence gives teams up-to-date, detailed, market analysis, presented in a ready-to-use format. It’s used by development, finance and policy teams across the social housing sector.

Understand the risk in new build

Many local authorities have large development programmes that deliver a mix of affordable housing and private sale. This is an emerging area of risk for the sector.

We provide independent, localised market intelligence to inform land acquisition and sales and marketing strategies. We enable planning teams to understand the market context for development, and the impact of trends on a scheme’s viability. This analysis can also be used for internal reporting and executive sign off.

We use the intelligence from the Hometrack system to inform our strategic planning for future developments, by our scheme appraisal process to evidence viability, and in our marketing reports to support Low Cost Home Ownership development.
