How it works

How moov works

From address to answer in about 60 seconds — using 14+ official UK data sources.

Three steps. One decision.

01

A search field with the address “40 Quiller Avenue, SW18” entered.

Enter a UK address

Type any postcode or full address. We match it to the exact building using Ordnance Survey geocoding.

02

Six data-source tiles — Land Registry, Environment Agency, BGS, Police.uk, Coal Authority and Planning — being scanned.

Moov scans 14+ sources

In about 60 seconds we pull data from major UK registries and bring it together into one clear, cited report.

03

Three stacked verdict cards: Pass, Caution and Fail, each with a short description.

Get a clear verdict

An indicative Pass, Caution or Fail for each area — with the risks to note and the questions worth asking, in plain English.

What we check for you

Seven areas, each with its own indicative status and the data behind it.

Flood risk

Environment Agency flood zones, surface-water signals and historic flooding for the area. Flood data can be modelled or area-level.

Ground stability

British Geological Survey indicators for subsidence, shrink-swell clay and nearby former mining. An indicator, not a structural assessment.

Planning applications

Planning records identified near the address from available data. No record identified is not the same as no planning issue.

Crime & safety

Police.uk area-level crime patterns and category mix. Street-level data is approximate and area-based — not specific to the property.

Broadband & mobile

Ofcom coverage indicators for the postcode. Indoor coverage can vary — worth confirming with providers.

Schools

Nearby schools and catchment context, to read alongside the local authority’s own admissions information.

Pricing vs area

HM Land Registry sale history and how the price compares to the street. Land Registry data can lag and is postcode-matched.

What moov doesn’t do

Moov is an early-stage information tool. It’s powerful for spotting what’s worth a closer look — but it has clear limits, and we’d rather be straight about them.

  • It doesn’t physically inspect the property or replace a survey.
  • It doesn’t give legal advice or replace a solicitor’s review of title.
  • It doesn’t confirm insurance availability, market value or mortgage suitability.
  • It works from available public data — where data is missing or unavailable, the report says so. Missing data doesn’t mean there’s no issue.
