Our take

SearchLand’s platform allows property developers to source off market sites by linking disparate data such as ownership information, planning records, local policy restraints, and prices, then contact landowners directly.

While there are a few platforms with this depth of information available, SearchLand is banking on its searchability to set it apart, letting users search only for plots that meet their criteria if they wish.

Launched in 2021, SearchLand’s emergence comes at a time when the property market is under increasing pressure to become more tech and data driven, and investment in Proptech skyrocketing. Indeed, SearchLand has recently secured funding itself in a bid to drive sales of its nascent platform.
