Property transactions data

Property transaction data records completed sales and transfers of property: the price paid, the date, the parties' roles and the property sold. Valuers, lenders, investors, insurers and researchers use it as the ground truth for prices, for automated valuation models and for market analysis.

Typical fields

• Parcel or title ID and address with geocode
• Sale price and currency
• Sale date and recording date
• Property type, new-build flag and tenure
• Buyer and seller type (individual, company, institution)
• Mortgage amount and lender, where recorded
• Floor area and attributes joined from assessor records

Sources and collection

Transactions come from land registries, county recorders, deed and tax assessor records, and official price-paid publications. Availability differs widely: some countries publish every sale openly, others restrict access or omit prices, and some regions do not disclose sale prices at all. Recording lag, from completion to publication, ranges from days to months. Providers geocode records, standardize addresses and link them to parcels and property attributes.

Delivery and pricing

Data is delivered as bulk files with weekly or monthly updates, APIs or cloud shares. Price is driven by geography, history depth and the attributes included, with per-lookup API pricing common for valuation tools.

Before you buy

• Ask for recording lag and coverage by jurisdiction.
• Check how non-market transfers, such as family transfers or foreclosures, are flagged.
• Confirm that property identifiers are stable over time.
• Check how individual buyer and seller names are handled.
• Ask how prices are sourced in places where they are not public.
