The Digital Property Market Steering Group

A new coalition of industry partners has been formed to work together and drive crucial transformation in the land and property market.

We’re delighted to announce that our chair, Maria Harris, is one of the steering group members of the newly formed Digital Property Market Steering Group (DPMSG).

Maria also chairs the Home Buying & Selling Technology Group and is committed to working with the steering group members to enable and accelerate positive change in the land and property market.

This also ensures that the group has someone representing the technology, proptech, and data firms across the homebuying and mortgage industry.

Following the announcement, the group also announced a new ‘Property with a View’ podcast, hosted by HM Land Registry’s Deputy Chief Executive Mike Harlow.

In this podcast, industry leaders will be brought together to discuss the challenges faced in the current property market and how we can work together to convene change
