Questions
What does Address Insight do?
See what you could build, before you make an offer or talk to an architect or planning consultant. You enter the address. We check what was approved and refused on similar homes nearby. You get an easy-to-read report.
Who is it for?
People about to offer on a house, people who already own one, and the agents helping them. It is a simple report, not a visit from an architect or a planning consultant.
What do I get?
A report on the website and a PDF. We check 8 common home improvements, such as a rear extension, a loft conversion, a side extension, a garage conversion and a garden room. You also see nearby examples and what to do next.
Which areas can I order?
The areas page lists the councils we search. A council marked on request cannot be ordered yet. Enter the full postcode.
Does a likely yes mean the council will say yes?
No. Likely yes means similar homes nearby were mostly allowed. The council still decides your drawings on their own.
Can I get a refund?
Yes, until the report is sent. After that it has been supplied. If the file is faulty, the Consumer Rights Act 2015 still applies. The full rules are on the refunds page.
