Recognised by the RLBA

The Residential Logbook Association (RLBA) promotes digital property logbooks as a way to reduce conveyancing delays, lower fall-through rates, and give buyers confidence. HouseData's logbook aligns with these principles — combining verified public data with a secure document store for each property.

Research shows properties with complete logbooks can reduce time to exchange by weeks — and reduce fall-throughs caused by missing documentation.

Frequently asked questions

What is a digital property logbook?

A digital property logbook is a secure, address-linked record that holds all the important information about a property — EPC certificates, planning history, price transactions, environmental risk data, and your own uploaded documents. It's designed to stay with the property over time, giving buyers, sellers, landlords, and conveyancers a complete picture.

Is the HouseData logbook free?

Yes. Every account gets a free logbook for up to 5 properties. Each logbook is automatically populated from public records — no manual entry needed. You can also upload unlimited documents per property.

How do I create my logbook?

Register for a free account, then search for your property address and add it. Your logbook is created automatically — populated with EPC history, planning data, sale price history, and risk assessments. Then upload any documents you want to store.

What documents can I upload?

You can upload any property document: gas safety certificates, EICRs, PAT test records, boiler service records, planning consents, warranties, tenancy agreements, survey reports, building regulations completion certificates, and more. Documents are stored securely in your account.

Does a property logbook help when selling?

Yes. Having certificates, warranties, and planning records readily available can speed up the conveyancing process significantly. It gives buyers confidence and reduces the chance of delays or fall-throughs caused by missing documentation. The RLBA reports that well-maintained logbooks can cut the average time to exchange by weeks.

Can I use it for a property I'm buying, not one I own?

Yes. You can add any property address to your dashboard — whether you own it, rent it, or are considering buying it. This makes it easy to research a property before committing, saving the data for your due diligence.
