Housometer vs PropertyChecker: one-off report or membership?
PropertyChecker is a membership: £2.99 for 30 days or £19.99 a year of unlimited sold-price and property lookups. Housometer is a £5 one-off report on the specific home you’re buying — with valuation, flood, ground, crime, noise, schools, planning and a 0–100 score — and no membership to remember to cancel.
PropertyChecker offers property and sold-price lookups under a recurring membership (£2.99 per 30 days or £19.99 per year, as of July 2026), with official Land Registry title documents available at extra per-document cost. Housometer is an independent England & Wales property report: £5 once for everything knowable about a specific home from 40+ official datasets — value, flood, ground, crime, noise, schools, transport, planning, lease and ownership — weighed into one 0–100 Home Confidence Score. Neither product is an estate agent or lead-generator: this page compares two due-diligence tools, and where PropertyChecker is the better fit we say so.

Feature by feature
What's included in a full report from each, as of July 2026.
- Cheap unlimited lookups while the membership runs — useful if you want to browse sold prices across many areas.
- A long-running sold-price search with a simple interface.
- A one-off purchase for the property you actually care about — pay £5 once, keep the report forever, nothing auto-renews.
- Due-diligence depth a price-lookup can’t give you: flood (with climate projection), ground and mining risk, radon, crime, DEFRA noise and air quality, live planning applications, lease term, ownership checks.
- A valuation estimate with confidence range, £/m² and mapped comparables — evidence for your offer, not just a list of past sales.
- The 0–100 Home Confidence Score, school performance, commute tools and a three-home compare table.
Housometer vs PropertyChecker — FAQs
Is PropertyChecker a subscription?
Yes — access is sold as a recurring membership (£2.99 per 30 days or £19.99 per year as of July 2026) that renews until cancelled. Housometer’s report is a one-off £5 purchase per property with no renewal; only our optional Unlimited plan (£15/month) is a subscription, and it cancels in one click.
Which is cheaper for checking one house?
For a single month, PropertyChecker’s £2.99 membership is cheaper than a £5 Housometer report. But they answer different questions: a membership buys lookups (mainly sold prices), while the £5 report is the full pre-offer due diligence — valuation with evidence, flood, ground, crime, noise, planning, schools, lease and ownership — on the home you’re about to offer on, kept forever.
Does Housometer charge extra for documents?
No. Everything in the report — including tenure, lease term and corporate-ownership checks — is included in the £5 price. We don’t resell HM Land Registry title documents; where you need the official title register for conveyancing, your solicitor obtains it (or you can buy it from HM Land Registry directly for £7).
Can I try Housometer free first?
Yes — search any address and you’ll see the free headline Home Confidence Score plus several free panels before deciding whether to unlock the full report. There’s no card required and no trial that converts into a membership.
