A short list, not a database

Deal-sourcing databases show every home that matches a filter, often hundreds, and leave the sums to you. gemhome reads them all and hands you the 10 worth a call, below market value or in need of work, with the working on each.

Scored, with the working
Price against the street, the gap to the done-up value, gross yield and seller signs, each with the figures behind it.
The exact home
Each advert is tied to that home's own energy certificate where it can be, so the size and rating are its own, not the street's.
One timeline
Every agent's advert for the same home is joined up, so you see each price and each cut in one place.
How far to trust it
Every score says how much of the record it could check, and where it had to make do.

What puts a home on the list

A home joins when at least one of these holds, and each home shows which, with where it came from.

The advert's own words
Phrases like "in need of modernisation" or "requiring complete refurbishment", quoted exactly.
The energy register
An E, F or G rating on the home's certificate.
Auction
Homes offered at auction, with the guide price marked as a guide.
Price against the street
How the asking price per m² compares with recent sales nearby.
Time and price cuts
Days on the market, and every cut we or the portal have seen.
A seller who may take less
Probate, no chain, a repossession, a price cut, or a home back on the market.

Then a score out of 100 from four checks

Price vs the street
The asking price per m² against recent sales of similar homes nearby.
Gap to done-up value
What similar homes nearby sold for at this size, minus the price and the energy works to reach C.
Gross yield
The rents of similar homes advertised nearby, or the area average where there are too few, over the asking price.
Work and seller signs
The advert's words, a poor energy rating, an auction, price cuts and time on the market.

Careful by design

Signals, not verdicts
We show what the advert and the records say, and where it came from. We never say a home has a defect. Check before you offer.
Owners stay private
Homes likely to come up never show an owner's name, phone number or email. An owner can ask us to remove their home at hello@gemhome.co.uk.
What it leaves out
New builds, shared ownership and retirement homes. No list catches every deal, so treat it as a head start.

Questions

Which areas can I search?

Anywhere in England or Wales. Scotland and Northern Ireland are not covered.

How far from my postcode do you look?

As far as it takes to find 10 good leads, starting within a mile and reaching up to 30 miles. The table shows how far each home is.

How soon are my first 10 ready?

Usually within a minute or two. An area nobody has searched before takes a little longer the first time, and the page shows how far it has looked.

What counts as a good lead?

A home that scores 50 or more out of 100 on the four checks: price against the street, the gap to done-up value, gross yield, and work and seller signs.

How much does it cost?

Pro is £24.99 a month for 3 searches and up to 50 good leads a week. Pro Max is £44.99 a month for 10 searches, 100 a week and instant alerts. The first 10 homes are free for 3 days, with no card.

How do I cancel?

From your account page, any time. There is no annual plan and no notice period.

Is this investment advice?

No. It is a list of homes with public-record signals and our estimates. Check every home yourself before you offer.
