Open Property Data Organisation

We are a group of individuals and organisations who share a common goal; to promote the application of open property data for the benefit of all. Our members include property data providers, technology companies, property professionals, and others who believe that open data is essential to a thriving and innovative property industry.

Our mission is to promote the sharing and use of trusted open property data, and to provide a forum for collaboration and innovation in the industry. We believe that open data and technology standards are essential for making informed decisions about property, whether you’re a buyer, seller, lender, intermediary, surveyor, or conveyancer.

As a member of our association, you’ll have access to a range of resources and benefits. We facilitate collaboration opportunities, provide a voice to shape the future of property data, and advocate for our members to promote the use of open property data. We also provide access to a community of experts and thought leaders in the field, who can help you stay up-to-date on the latest trends and best practices.

Whether you’re a proptech start-up or a large software supplier, we welcome all organisations who share our vision for a better, more transparent and interoperable property industry.

Join us today and help us build a better future for consumers and the property industry, powered by a Property Data Trust Framework, data and technology standards.
