Help with HomeTrace
Find an answer quickly
HomeTrace is designed to make local property sales information easier to explore. Open a question below for practical guidance on searching, filtering and understanding the map.
How do I search for properties near an area?
Use the map or search for an area to centre the view, then browse the nearby property sales shown on the map. You can select a transaction to view its available details.
How do I use the UK postcode search?
Enter a valid UK postcode in the search field and submit it. HomeTrace uses the postcode to find the area and centre the map so you can explore nearby sales.
How does the year filter work?
Choose a year to show property sale transactions recorded for that year. Clear or change the filter to compare results from another period.
Why are several sales shown close together on the map?
Some coordinates may be approximate. HomeTrace separates nearby results visually when needed so that individual transactions remain readable on the map.
Why does HomeTrace ask for my location?
Location access is optional. If you allow it, HomeTrace uses your location to centre the map and help show nearby sales. You can revoke permission at any time in iOS Settings.
Are the results a property valuation or financial advice?
No. HomeTrace provides information for exploration only. Its results are not a property valuation and should not be treated as financial, legal or investment advice.
