Unlocking the potential of data
Andrew Lloyd, managing director of Search Acumen, says buyers increasingly want more information upfront and more data-led innovation is needed to help them find the best deal. He notes data-led initiatives from the Ministry for Housing, Communities & Local Government and HM Land Registry, and says:
“The industry’s challenge … is to take the data and do what the government and regulators can’t – unlock its potential by identifying where it can be valuable for everyone involved in the property transaction chain, and ultimately, the property buyers and seller.”
