Interrogate any UK postcode before buying or renting. Area checks and rental search are open.

The short version

What is the crime like, is it a concrete jungle, is it disconnected from convenience? Run a search to find rentals that suit your perfect. Search, Profile, billing and account tools are open.

What is NeighbourFit?

Interrogate any UK postcode before buying or renting. Area checks and rental search are open.

What can I use publicly right now?

The product is open. Use Map Intelligence, Profile, rental search, billing and account tools, including download and delete. Guests get one search before creating an account.

What does Map Intelligence do?

Map Intelligence lets you interrogate a postcode: what the crime reports look like, whether the place feels like a concrete jungle, whether convenience is close enough, and what you should still verify yourself.

Is NeighbourFit a letting agent or property broker?

No. NeighbourFit is a search and decision-support product. It does not market homes, manage tenancies, negotiate rent, provide legal advice or guarantee that a property or area is suitable.

Does NeighbourFit make the rental decision for me?

No. The product is designed to reduce admin and show evidence, not replace personal judgement. Renters should still verify listings, visit homes, check contracts and make their own decisions.

How does NeighbourFit handle sensitive area data?

Area data is treated as evidence, not a verdict about people. Sensitive demographic and consumer-vulnerability data is not used in default scoring, and missing evidence should be shown rather than hidden.

What happens to AI keys in bring-your-own-key?

User-supplied AI provider keys stay in this browser tab only. They are not written to localStorage or the NeighbourFit database. Server routes can receive a key for a single request when needed, but the key is not persisted server-side.

How do I start?

Open the product, try Map Intelligence, or create an account with Google. Existing password accounts can sign in or use Forgot password. Guests get one search. The updates page is only for optional email follow-up.

What is the difference between a free search and a paid search?

A free search returns up to 20 homes. A bought search credit returns up to 100 homes for that search. The evidence checks stay the same. You are paying for a wider return, not a different standard.
