If you're a data-driven property investor, your workflow probably looks something like this: EPC register for energy ratings. Environment Agency for flood maps. Planning.data.gov.uk for constraints. Google Maps for street views. Council websites for vacancy data. A spreadsheet to pull it all together.
Six tabs. Six different interfaces. Six data formats. And you're doing this for every single property you evaluate.
Analytical investors — often from finance or tech backgrounds — know that property is an information game. The deals with the best returns go to the people who can process data fastest and act on it first.
But the UK property data landscape is fragmented by design. Government datasets sit across dozens of agencies, each with its own portal and format. There's no single API. No unified search. No way to cross-reference EPC ratings against flood risk against planning constraints without manually stitching it together.
Your spreadsheet is doing the integration work that a proper platform should be doing for you.
LandAttic aggregates the datasets that matter into a single, searchable interface built around an interactive map of over 15,000 empty properties.
EPC data is attached to each property. Current rating, potential rating, CO2 emissions, wall type, heating system, floor area. The quantitative inputs your scoring model needs, without visiting the EPC register.
Planning constraints are checked automatically. Five categories pulled from planning.data.gov.uk — Conservation Areas, Listed Buildings, Article 4 Directions, Tree Preservation Orders, and nearby applications. Binary screening data for your go/no-go decision tree.
Flood risk is layered onto the map. Environment Agency data for rivers, surface water, and 228 live flood alerts. Enable the overlay and risk zones appear visually — or check individual properties for detailed assessments.
Brownfield sites, Conservation Areas, and AONB boundaries are all available as toggleable map layers. 56,655 brownfield sites, 10,514 conservation areas, and 34 AONB designations — visible at a glance.
UPRN data on every property. Unique Property Reference Numbers let you cross-reference LandAttic data with Land Registry records, council tax databases, and any other dataset you're working with.
Daily email alerts feed new empty properties into your workflow automatically. Shortlist the ones that pass initial screening. Export your research. Repeat.
The investors who outperform aren't smarter — they have better data infrastructure. LandAttic replaces the six-tab workflow with one platform that's already done the integration.
LandAttic Essential+ costs less than most investors spend on a single Land Registry download. The time saved on manual data gathering across six websites compounds with every property you evaluate.
