Household and property insights built from non-PII data sources
Open the door to over 30 million households and access key property and household insights with The UK Household File
Introducing The UK Household File
The UK Household File (UKHF) is the most comprehensive, completely non personal and compliant view of over 30 million UK residential households and their properties.
Built using address only property data and highly accurate non-personal modelled household variables (derived from Open Source data), the UKHF gives you valuable consumer insight into property, lifestyle and behaviours to help you make better informed marketing decisions, whilst ensuring your business remains completely compliant with GDPR.

It is then averaged across a number of properties of the same type in the same area to reduce statistical errors and create a robust outcome. The result is a profile for each property outlining the most likely values for each core variable for that property.
Data at this level of detail covering these core attributes provide modellers, marketers and analysts with powerful data which can:
Replace non-compliant legacy profiling tools
Enhance targeting using variables that make a real difference
