For mortgage brokers

The property report mortgage brokers send before the valuation

Equip your client with the EPC band, lease length, council tax, flood risk and title structure in one PDF, before the lender's valuer arrives.

Half of mortgage applications stall on details the broker only finds after the valuation comes back. EPC F/G triggers a refer-to-underwriter on green products. Sub-80-year leases drop the LTV ceiling. Flood Zone 3 changes the insurer panel. Premium reports give you all of that in 15 minutes, so you can structure the application correctly first time.

What mortgage brokers actually need to check

The six risks that matter most for your purchase, all flagged in the report before you make an offer.

EPC band and green-mortgage eligibility

Current and potential band, plus the cheapest improvements. Tells you immediately which green-product range the property qualifies for.

Leasehold years remaining + risk band

Lease length is one of the most common reasons mortgages are referred. We show years remaining, marriage-value threshold, extension cost band, and lender risk profile.

Flood risk for insurer panel selection

Flood Zone classification (Zone 1, 2, 3) plus active warnings. Determines which insurers will quote at standard rates vs Flood Re.

Title number + freehold/leasehold split

Premium tier shows the HMLR title number, class and ownership type. Save your client the £3 HMLR fee per property by surfacing it in the report.

Council tax band + annual charge

Annual liability is a fixed cost lenders ask about. We show the band and the year's actual charge so your affordability calc is right.

Valuation evidence + £/sqft

Recent comparable sales and the local £/sqft average. Useful for setting a sensible reservation if the asking price is above market.

The report sections that matter most for you

Same report. Ordered by what matters to your decision.

  1. 1

    Energy (EPC): current + potential band

    Green-mortgage products typically require EPC C or better. We show the current band, the potential band, and the cheapest improvements to get there.

  2. 2

    Leasehold Analysis

    Years remaining is the single most common reason mortgages are referred. Premium tier shows the marriage-value threshold, extension cost band, and lender risk profile.

  3. 3

    Title & Ownership

    Title number, class, ownership type. Critical for any case requiring a Land Registry document, your conveyancing colleague will thank you.

  4. 4

    Flood Risk + Active Warnings

    Flood Zone classification + Environment Agency warnings. Drives both insurer panel and mortgage refer/decline decisions.

  5. 5

    Valuation + £/sqft comparison

    Recent comparable sales tell you whether the offer price is above the lender's likely valuation. Saves a wasted application if the gap is wide.

  6. 6

    Council Tax + Stamp Duty

    Annual council tax is a fixed cost in your affordability calculation. SDLT (with FTB / BTL variants computed) tells you the upfront cash needed at completion.

Recommended for you

Premium report · £24.99

The Premium tier is the right level for mortgage broker use. Title & Ownership, Leasehold Analysis and the deeper planning history are exactly the sections that catch lender refers. Standard works for a sanity check on simpler purchases; Investor is overkill unless your client is a BTL portfolio buyer.

All three tiers buyable. Premium adds ownership + planning depth. Investor adds full financial modelling.

Common questions

Can I white-label the report?
Not currently. The report carries the PropertyReportUK brand. Many brokers send the PDF to clients as a research tool. Clients understand they're paying £24.99 for the data, not for advice. If you have a high-volume use case (50+ reports/month) get in touch about a partner programme.
Does the lease length analysis cover the marriage-value threshold?
Yes. The Premium tier flags whether the lease is below 80 years (the marriage-value threshold under the 1993 Act), shows the years remaining, and gives an indicative extension cost band. Critical for advising a client on whether to extend before or after purchase.
Will the report help with a Help to Buy or shared ownership case?
It analyses the underlying property the same way regardless of the ownership scheme. We separately surface unusual title arrangements in the Premium tier's Title & Ownership section.
Does the report flag retrospective alterations that might cause a lender query?
We surface recent planning applications within 500m and the building's construction era. If your client's property has had alterations, the planning section will show any application history. A retrospective application can flag a lender refer on its own.
Can I send the report as part of an application pack?
Yes, the PDF is shareable. Many brokers attach it as supporting documentation. Worth noting: the report is informational and does not constitute a RICS valuation or formal advice. We always recommend a qualified surveyor and solicitor alongside.
Do you have an API for bulk orders?
Not yet publicly available. If you have a high-volume use case, contact support@propertyreportuk.com, we can discuss a partner integration.
