Property data platform Property Deals Insight has joined the Open Property Data Association (OPDA), contributing to efforts to streamline the homebuying process through shared digital property information.
Founded in 2019, Property Deals Insight was developed to address challenges in the property market around fragmented and inconsistent data.
The platform aggregates and standardises over 40 million UK property records from multiple sources, providing a single, consistent view of each property. It aims to simplify data sourcing, matching, and interpretation, supporting faster and more informed decision-making.
In addition to providing access to raw data, the platform offers tools such as valuation reports, planning and materials information packs, and investment appraisal models. Its users include estate agents, proptech companies, investors, lenders, and other property-focused businesses.
Nitin Aggarwal, founder and CEO of Property Deals Insight, said joining the OPDA reflected a long-standing alignment with the association’s mission to improve how property data is shared and used across the market.
He said: “Property transactions are slower and more stressful than they need to be because critical information is scattered, inconsistent or only discovered late in the process. That frustration is exactly why we built Property Deals Insight.
“We’ve always believed that when everyone is working from the same, trusted data foundation, you unlock better decisions, faster transactions and a fairer market. The OPDA’s work on standards, trust frameworks and material information strongly aligns with what we’ve been building for years, so formalising our membership is a natural next step.”
The OPDA wants to change the way we buy and sell houses in the UK through the sharing of upfront and authenticated property data. It is responsible for building the trust framework that will enable the industry-wide adoption of smart property data and technology standards.
Maria Harris, chair of the OPDA, said: “Property Deals Insight brings technical expertise and real-world implementation experience to the OPDA. Their work demonstrates how fragmented property data can be brought together, standardised and turned into meaningful insight at scale.
“We’re delighted to welcome them as members and look forward to collaborating on standards that help the industry deliver greater transparency, trust and transaction readiness for consumers and professionals alike.”
