Predictable costs for
portfolio-scale property data.
Street Data charges £0.02–£0.50 per lookup. At scale, that adds up fast — and becomes unpredictable. Homedata uses flat monthly plans with included call allowances. Same UK property data, same API. A fraction of the cost at volume.
Free tier — 100 calls/month, no credit card required. Flat monthly plans from £49/month with 2,000 calls included.
The per-lookup pricing trap
Pay-per-lookup pricing seems公平 until you run the numbers on a real workload.

Data Street Data doesn't offer via API
Street Data covers the core property dataset. Homedata goes further with data categories that are only available from Homedata's unified API — no separate subscriptions required.
- ✓ Schools API — every school within a radius of any UK property, from the DfE GIAS register. No competitor offers this via API. Critical for family搬家, mortgage, and insurance products.
- ✓ Council tax cost — annual and monthly council tax amounts, not just the band. Street Data bundles this. Homedata is adding it to the same endpoint.
- ✓ Live listing events — price changes, days on market, status updates from Rightmove, Zoopla, and OnTheMarket. Build your own property alerts without scraping.
- ✓ Planning applications — 417 local authorities, ~20M applications. Full-text search, decision status, documents. For conveyancing, due diligence, and property intelligence platforms.
- ✓ Deprivation index — Index of Multiple Deprivation for any postcode or LSOA. Useful for underwriting, local authority analytics, and investment risk models.
- ✓ Solar assessment — solar potential, panel count estimate, roof orientation. For energy efficiency, mortgage, or home improvement products.
Same data you'd get from Street Data
The core dataset — EPC, sold prices, council tax, property characteristics — is equally comprehensive on Homedata. The difference is how it's delivered and billed.
- ✓ EPC ratings — all 29M assessed properties, current certificate data
- ✓ Land Registry sold prices — UPRN-linked, 30-year history, full transaction log
- ✓ Council tax bands — all 29M properties, VOA-sourced
- ✓ Flood risk — river, surface water, coastal — all 7 risk types
- ✓ Environmental risk — radon, noise, landfill, coal mining, air quality, invasive plants
- ✓ Property characteristics — bedrooms, bathrooms, floor area, property type, tenure
Migrating from Street Data
Most Street Data customers migrate in a single afternoon. The API structure is similar — REST, JSON, Authorization header — and Homedata's documentation covers every endpoint with cURL, Python, and JavaScript examples.

Change your base URL from Street Data's endpoint to https://neo.homedata.co.uk/api/v1/. Swap your API key in the Authorization header.
Field names differ between providers. Check the endpoint reference for the exact response shape. Response structure is similar for address and property data calls.

PropertyData vs Homedata →Searchland
Map-first SaaS platform for land and planning professionals. £195/seat/month with no developer API — if you want programmatic access to planning applications, title data, or flood risk, Homedata gives you a self-serve REST API instead of a per-seat web UI.
Searchland vs Homedata →Realyse
Enterprise analytics dashboards for institutional property investors. No public API, no self-serve signup, custom enterprise pricing. If you need raw data to build your own product, Homedata is the developer-first alternative.
Homedata vs Realyse →Loqate (GBG)

Loqate vs Homedata →Ideal Postcodes
Good developer experience, PAYG pricing (2.8–4.5p per lookup), UPRN included. Returns address + UPRN only — no property enrichment. Solid choice if you just need clean addresses, but Homedata covers this plus everything else.
