About RenterCheck
RenterCheck is a free property intelligence tool built for UK renters. We pull data from over 20 official sources and combine it into a single, easy-to-read report so you can make informed decisions before signing a lease.
Whether you are checking energy efficiency ratings, local crime statistics, flood risk, broadband speeds, or nearby school quality, RenterCheck gives you the full picture in seconds.
Our Mission
Every year, over 2 million people move to a new rental property in the UK. Many sign leases without knowing the true condition of the home or the surrounding area. Our mission is simple: give every UK renter the information they need to avoid unsafe homes, hidden costs, and unpleasant surprises.
Data Sources
We aggregate data from trusted government and public sources, including:
- EPC Register – Energy performance certificates for domestic properties across England and Wales.
- Police.uk API – Street-level crime data and neighbourhood safety statistics.
- Environment Agency – Flood risk assessments covering river, surface water, and coastal flooding.
- Ofcom – Broadband speed and availability data by postcode.
