What's in a Truely UK address history report

  • Every sale at the postcode since 1995 — date, price, property type, new-build flag — from HM Land Registry's Price Paid Data.
  • 30+ years of Band D council tax — annual rate from 1993 onwards, plotted as a trend with real-terms (CPI-adjusted) comparison.
  • Index of Multiple Deprivation, direction of travel — IMD decile in 2015, 2019 and 2025, showing whether the area is improving, declining or stable.
  • Planning applications (Pro) — every submission to the local authority with status, decision date and outcome.
  • HMO licensing register (Pro) — every licensed house in multiple occupation at the postcode.
  • Listed buildings & heritage designations — from Historic England's National Heritage List.
  • Tree Preservation Orders (Pro) — TPOs on the property or within 50m.

Can I see the owner history of a specific address?

For the specific named owners of a property, you need HM Land Registry's official register — a £3 title document per property, ordered directly from gov.uk. The sale-price history we display covers every transaction at the postcode (date and amount) but not the buyer/seller names — that information sits behind the Land Registry's per-title fee. Truely is not a workaround for that fee; we're a free aggregator of everything that is openly published.

How far back does the address history go?

Different datasets have different start dates. HM Land Registry's Price Paid Data starts in 1995 — every sale of a freehold or qualifying leasehold property in England and Wales since then is there. MHCLG's Band D council-tax dataset goes back to 1993. IMD has three vintages: 2015, 2019 and 2025. Crime, broadband, air-quality and Ofsted data are typically refreshed monthly or annually. Each section header carries the data's actual publication date.

Is it really free?

Yes. The full sale-price history, council-tax history, IMD direction-of-travel, listed-buildings register and the rest of the core report are free for everyone with a free Truely account. Planning applications, HMO licensing, and TPO records are part of our Pro tier (£15/month), but the headline address history is permanently free.
