Proprietary data and research

Who actually owns the UK's housing stock?

Two different things live here. Proprietary data is genuinely ours — metrics we compute ourselves by transforming raw sources, that don't exist in this form anywhere else. Data and analysis is published data from elsewhere, presented plainly with our own analysis alongside it.
