From an address to a decision, in four steps

Plotworthy turns the scattered public record — planning, EPC, Land Registry, HMO licensing — into one answer: what could this property become, and does it stack up?

  1. 1. Search the address

    Type a UK address with a full postcode. We locate the council and query the public feeds currently available for that point.

    Every result carries a source and date. Missing coverage is shown as unknown; the example properties are illustrative demos.

  2. 2. Read the feasibility report

    Review nearby planning records, mapped constraints, possible permitted-development routes, HMO evidence coverage and the next check required for each change-of-use option.

    The report separates measured records, assumptions, calculations and unknowns. It does not manufacture a planning probability.

  3. 3. Model the income and ROI

    Switch between HMO, flat conversion and supported-living/care scenarios. Edit rents, voids, running costs, finance and conversion cost per unit and watch net income, ROI and payback recompute live.

    The calculator is free and always will be — the formula sits under every output so you can check our working.

  4. 4. Connect with local pros

    Where an active professional covers the postcode, request an introduction to an architect, builder or planning consultant from the report.

    Paid placement will be labelled. Professional identity, insurance and competence checks remain the customer's responsibility.

All figures, planning interpretations and saturation checks shown by Plotworthy are illustrative estimates based on sample and third-party data. They are not financial, investment, legal or planning advice. Always verify with the local planning authority and a qualified professional before committing to a purchase or scheme.
