Using OS data to help fix the housing market

Technology means people now expect to receive the information they need at the click of a button. The property market is traditionally opaque.

How to bring together in one place, and in a user-friendly and accurate way, all the information clients need to know about property.

Making sense of datasets in a way that works for a range of different audience/client types: for example, investors, renters, house buyers, property developers, solicitors, and surveyors.

Developing a platform that helps take the stress out of property, whether buying, selling, developing or managing it.

Sprift has created the most transparent and comprehensive property data platform by bringing together datasets and overlaying this intelligence on OS MasterMap.

Sprift works for property developers and investors looking to start or grow their property portfolio.

Sprift is ‘co-created’, meaning the more people who join the partnership, the better the experience.

Feedback shows that OS MasterMap’s usability and visual accessibility is key to the positive perception’s users have of the Sprift platform.

For the first time, the market has a single point of access for all information on any property in the country.

Micro-businesses and SMEs looking to invest and grow, are saving time and money that used to be spent searching the internet and travelling the country.

Agents can partner with Sprift to ensure their clients are given the most accurate and up-to-date information on properties in their area.

Buying, renting, or selling a house often tops the list of most stressful aspects of modern life. By logging on to Sprift, users can access all property data they need, in real-time, improving, and de-stressing this experience.
