Coverage

Delay: Not stated.

Verdict

Property sales in England and Wales that were sold for value and lodged with HM Land Registry for registration, as downloadable CSV, keyless and free. WARNING: the address fields are not fully covered by the OGL. The download page says: "However, OGL does not cover the use of third party rights, which we are not authorised to license. Price Paid Data contains address data processed against Ordnance Survey’s AddressBase Premium product, which incorporates Royal Mail’s PAF® database (Address Data)." Royal Mail and Ordnance Survey's own permission for that Address Data is narrower. The page says: "Royal Mail and Ordnance Survey permit your use of Address Data in the Price Paid Data:" followed by two bullet points, "for personal and/or non-commercial use" and "to display for the purpose of providing residential property price information services". The page adds: "If you want to use the Address Data in any other way, you must contact Royal Mail." Required attribution for the rest of the data: "Contains HM Land Registry data © Crown copyright and database right 2021. This data is licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0."
