two.1.4) Short description
Homes England requires quality, spatially referenced market intelligence data that will allow us to provide evidence to support data-led decision making and inform housing policy within Homes England. This in turn will assist us when working with our stakeholders to ensure we deliver mixed-use places that create value and benefit local communities, and that local places are effectively supported to deliver on their regeneration ambitions.
In 2021, Homes England ran an open competition to procure market intelligence. The current contract comes to an end in March 2025. We are aiming to award the new contract prior to this date.
The original specification has been amended and expanded to ensure that we can gain the best insight into housing and commercial markets.
The Procurement is split between 4 Lots. Lot 1 contains both mandatory and discretionary elements.
Supplier must bid on one lot as a minimum but can choose to bid for any combination of lots or all lots. Lots will be awarded to the top scoring supplier for each individual lot.
We are seeking to commission the supply of intelligence covering the following data themes:
Lot 1 – Housing Market
Automated Valuation Model (AVM) and Automated Rental Valuation Model (ARVM)
Housing Characteristics
Sales Transactions
Rental Transactions
Lot 2 – Housing Demand
Housing Demand indicators
Demand demographics – who is searching for housing?
Affordability indicators
Lot 3 – Mortgage Applicants
Where applicants are currently living and what is their budget for different property types?
Lot 4 Commercial Data

Size of commercial market
