API Reference

All endpoints return JSON. Authentication uses Authorization: Api-Key YOUR_KEY on every request.

Base URL: https://api.homedata.co.uk/api/v1
Legacy endpoints: https://api.homedata.co.uk
💡

Two base URLs. Newer endpoints (properties, address, broadband, schools, crime, listings) use https://api.homedata.co.uk/api/ — all auth and rate limiting is handled here. Older endpoints (EPC, risks, deprivation, price trends, comparables, sales) still use https://api.homedata.co.uk/api/. Both use the same API key. We're migrating everything to /api/ — new integrations should prefer V1 paths where available.

Deprivation Index

/api/deprivation/?postcode={postcode}
Risk & Environment 1 call England ✓ Wales ~ Scotland ✗ N. Ireland ✗

English Indices of Multiple Deprivation for any postcode. Returns overall score plus individual domains: income, employment, education, health, crime, housing, and environment.

Coverage note: IMD data covers England only (Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland use separate indices). Dataset loading is ongoing — the following postcode areas are not yet available: SW, M, SM, SN, SO, SP, SR, SS, ST, SY, ME, MK, WA, RM, HA, BD, BL, BH, GU, HP, HD, HG, HR and parts of N, S.

Working areas include: SE, E, NW, W, NE, B (Birmingham), L (Liverpool), LS (Leeds), OX (Oxford), BS (Bristol), PE, YO, and most of the Midlands and North East.

If you receive a "Postcode not found" response, try SE1 7PB or E1 6AN to verify your API key is working correctly. This is a data coverage gap, not an auth issue.

Postcode Profile

/api/postcode-profile?postcode={postcode}
Aggregator 1 call England ✓ Wales ~ Scotland ✗ N. Ireland ✗

One API call returns the full area profile for a UK postcode. Bundles deprivation index, broadband speed, sold price history, nearby schools (Ofsted), transport stops, Census 2021 demographics, environmental risk (flood + radon), council tax band distribution, property count by type, and HPI trend. Equivalent to PropertyData's /postcode-key-stats — we return it in a single call.

Tier note: Postcode profile is available on Starter+ plans (25/month on Free tier). Free tier returns summary data only — no historical sales, no school details.

Data freshness: Census 2021 data is static until the 2031 Census. Broadband and HPI data refresh monthly. Sold prices reflect the last 24 months.

property int one of* Alias for uprn 100090913175

Market Activity

/api/property_sale_events/?sale={sale_id}
Market Data Flat 5 calls England ✓ Wales ✓ Scotland ✗ N. Ireland ✗

The full listing lifecycle for any sale — every event from first instruction to completion. Returns Added, Reduced, Under Offer, Sold STC, Completed, Withdrawn and more, each timestamped and priced. Unlike Land Registry (completions only, 3–6 month lag), this includes properties that were listed but never sold. 30 years of data from Home.co.uk.

At least one filter is required. The typical flow: call Property Sales with a UPRN to get sale IDs, then pass ?sale= here for that sale's timeline.

API call cost — flat 5 calls per request. Same cost whether the sale has 2 events or 20 — the full timeline is returned in one response. limit controls the page size (default 10, max 100) but does not affect billing.

Auth: API key required
Required: at least one filter (typically sale)

Param Type Example Description

listing UUID ?listing=abc-def… Events from a specific listing
event_type string ?event_type=Sold STC Only events of this type

Live Listings

/api/live-listings/search/?boundary_id={id}
Market & Pricing 1 call / row England ✓ Wales ✓ Scotland ✓ N. Ireland ~

Search currently active UK property listings. Filter by boundary, property type, price range, and bedrooms. Returns paginated results with price, property details, and UPRN for chaining into other endpoints.

API call cost — 1 call per listing returned, up to the page size. Live Listings is the only endpoint that remains per-row (Property Sales / Historic Listings / Sale Events are all flat 5 calls). Each request consumes max(1, len(results)) calls. Default 30/page = 30 calls; max 100/page = 100 calls; a single result = 1 call; an empty page = 1 call. Set page_size deliberately — you're billed per listing, not per request.

💡

Two-step workflow: Use Boundaries Autocomplete to find a boundary_id for your location, then pass it here. For example, search for "Manchester" → get id: 14624 → use boundary_id=14624.

Auth: API key required
Response time: ~560ms

Parameters

Name Type Description
boundary_id int Area filter — from Boundaries Autocomplete. Mutually exclusive with uprn.
uprn int (8–12 digits) Single-property filter. Mutually exclusive with boundary_id.
transaction_type string "Sale" or "Rental" — omit for both
bedrooms int Minimum bedrooms
max_bedrooms int Maximum bedrooms
min_price int Minimum asking price (GBP)
max_price int Maximum asking price (GBP)
property_type string Comma-separated: Detached, Semi-Detached, Terraced, Flat
new_builds_only bool true to return only new-build listings
reduced_only bool true to return only listings with a price reduction
sort string -added_date (default), added_date, -latest_price, latest_price
page / page_size int Pagination. Default page_size=30, max 100. You're charged 1 call for every listing in the response, so page_size is a direct cost knob.

Council Tax Band

/api/council_tax_band/?postcode={postcode}&building_number={number}
Core Property 1 call England ✓ Wales ✓ Scotland ✗ N. Ireland ✗

Look up the council tax band for any UK residential property. Data sourced live from HMRC's Valuation Office Agency (VOA). Returns the band (A–H) and verified address.

Different from other endpoints: This endpoint uses postcode + building_number (or building_name) — not a UPRN. If you only have a UPRN, use Address Retrieve first to get the building number, then call this endpoint.

Auth: API key required
Parameters: postcode (required), building_number or building_name (one required)
Note: Live VOA lookup — response time 1–3s. England and Wales only.

Flood Risk

/api/flood-risk/?uprn={uprn}
1 call

Dedicated flood-risk endpoint — NaFRA2 river/sea and surface-water scores for any UK UPRN. Returns structured Low/Medium/High/Very High labels plus a numeric score. Local PostGIS lookup (<1ms), no WMS round-trips.

Price Growth

/api/price-growth/{outcode}/
1 call

Capital-appreciation data for an outcode — annual growth rate, 1Y/3Y/5Y/10Y returns, and historical price index. Computed from Land Registry sold-price transactions.

Demographics

/api/demographics/?postcode={postcode}
1 call

ONS Census 2021 demographics for a postcode. The postcode is resolved to its MSOA (middle-layer super output area, ~7,500 residents), so the response describes that neighbourhood rather than the individual postcode unit.

Returns population counts, tenure breakdown (owned outright / owned with mortgage / social rented / private rented / rent-free), age bands, ethnicity, occupation, household size, and car ownership — plus MHCLG IMD 2019 deprivation when available. Includes the LSOA, MSOA and local authority codes so you can join to other ONS datasets.

Valuations

/api/valuations/estimate/?uprn={uprn}
1 call

Estimated sale or rental value for a property. A three-tier fallback picks the strongest available signal:

  1. Recent sale — if the property completed in the past 12 months, returns the Land Registry sold price (method: "recent_sale_price", confidence high).
  2. Active listing — if currently listed for sale, returns the asking price (method: "active_listing_price", confidence high).
  3. Composite comparables — otherwise runs a PostGIS radius search over sold + listed comparables, adjusts for HPI, and returns a weighted average (method: "composite_score_weighted_average").

Every response includes the method field so you know which signal drove the number, plus confidence_low / confidence_high for the band and comparable_count for how many comparables were used (only meaningful for the composite fallback).

Parameters
