OPDA comment on MHCLG announcement on digitalisation of home-buying/selling

10 February 2025

Maria Harris, chair of OPDA said:

“This is a significant step forward in the modernisation of the home buying and selling process. The government's commitment to streamlining transactions through digital property data will help create a more efficient, transparent, and cost-effective system for all, especially consumers.

“At OPDA, we have long advocated for smart, secure, and trusted data to be at the heart of this transformation, and we welcome this recognition of its importance.

“We are grateful to our members and supporters, particularly those who have worked tirelessly to develop open data standards and demonstrate their value in practice. This progress would not have been possible without their dedication.”
