Introducing our innovative WhatHouse? Location Ratings!

Our industry-first Location Ratings can tell you so much more about your potential new home than just location, price, and number of bedrooms.

We use official data to consider factors like proximity to a city or nature, broadband speeds, schools and shops in the area, or air quality, to give you a broader picture of the developments you’re considering. With WhatHouse? Location Ratings, you can make an informed decision and find a home that tick the boxes that are most important to you and perfectly aligns with your lifestyle. 

Location Ratings

Working with data experts CLSQ, we assess the latest information to give every current new homes development a rating under the core categories you see here. We use the latest data from various government departments, open source map data, and monitoring bodies such as OFSTED and OFCOM, we combine the results into an easy-to-understand, visual system.

The ratings are updated regularly, meaning you can be confident you’re making informed decisions based on accurate data to help you pick your ideal new home!
