Point your phone at a home and find out its story.
PicAHome uses your camera and your location to work out which house you are standing in front of, then tells you what is on record about it. No address to type, no listing to find first.

WATCH A STREET
Follow a street you care about and we will tell you when something changes on it — a new listing, a price cut, something going under offer. Save the homes you love and come back to them any time.
HOW IT WORKS
Stand outside a home in England or Wales, open PicAHome, and take a photo. We work out which house you meant from where you are standing and which way you are facing, and show you what we know. If we pick the wrong one, the whole street is right there to choose from.
WHAT IT IS NOT
PicAHome is for general information. Sold prices come from HM Land Registry and appear two to three months after a sale completes. Some information is estimated, and some homes have very little on record. It is not a valuation, and it is not advice — check with an estate agent, surveyor or conveyancer before acting on anything you see here.
England and Wales only. Sold price data is not published for Scotland or Northern Ireland.
Free, with no in-app purchases and no subscription.
Brilliant app, very clever idea and is very addictive to use. I really enjoy the features which show many metrics which I think are handy when trying to look at new properties. I think it is a great tool for those who are looking at buying a new home and trying to get a general idea of average property prices in a specific area. Would definitely recommend this app to others!
Fast, accurate results!

I used PicAHome to find out more about a house for sale near me. At the click of a button I found out it’s sale history, what it’s on the market for, other nearby listings- all that info within seconds! Absolute godsend for anyone house hunting or if you’re just curious about property! Amazing app and easy to use!
AMAZING

Really impressed with this app. It’s straightforward to use and gives me the property information I need without having to jump between different websites. Everything loads quickly and the layout is clean, so it’s easy to find what you’re looking for. It’s already saved me a lot of time. Definitely worth downloading.
So useful for my property search

This app has been a godsend for searching hard-to-find info about properties. You can do so easily with a simple photo of whatever house you like the look of! Recommend it for anyone on the house hunt
