Frequently Asked Questions
Is scraping and downloading UK council HMO registers legal?
Yes. Under Section 232 of the Housing Act 2004, local housing authorities are legally required to maintain a public register of licensed HMOs. Accessing and compiling statutory public information is fully lawful under UK public data re-use regulations.
What file formats are provided upon purchase?
Every dataset is instantly delivered as both a comma-separated values (`.csv`) file and a Microsoft Excel (`.xlsx`) spreadsheet, formatted to a uniform schema ready for your CRM.
How does the Companies House enrichment work?
When our ingestion engine processes a licensee name that matches a registered company, it automatically queries the official Companies House REST API to append the live Company Registration Number (CRN), registered office address, and active director profiles.
