Sold prices, energy rating, flood risk and council licences from one address

Owlsby gives the facts on any home in England and Wales from its address, each with its source and date, free. Nobody can pay to change an answer or the order answers come in.

Owlsby is a record of every home, for anyone buying, moving into, owning or letting one, and for letting agents and other professionals.

The report opens on its own page, stays out of search engines, and you share it by link. It is not a survey, a legal search or advice, and never replaces your conveyancer's searches.

What we saw on 1 February 2027.

Licence is for a let to one household. The council has the final say on whether a let here needs its licence. In Wales, a Rent Smart Wales licence is still needed.
