Safety & Risk
Crime, health hazards, and safety considerations
Crime Risk Assessment
Area safety analysis
Propbar Crime Score provides a comprehensive assessment of safety by analysing police-reported incidents and their severity.
Historic Landfill Site
Environmental and health consideration
Historic landfill sites are areas where waste was buried in the past. These can pose risks from ground contamination, landfill gas (methane), and ground stability issues.
Historic Mining Area
Ground stability consideration
Areas with past or present mining activity may have ground stability issues, including subsidence risk.
Lead Plumbing Risk
Potential health hazard
Older properties may have lead water pipes, which can contaminate drinking water and pose health risks, especially for children.
Radon Gas Risk
Natural radioactive gas hazard
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that comes from uranium in rocks and soil. High levels can increase lung cancer risk. Some areas of the UK have higher radon levels than others.
Short Lease Warning
Leasehold property concern
Leasehold properties with fewer than 80 years remaining face significant issues with mortgageability, saleability, and lease extension costs.
