On May 25th 2018 new regulations come in to force whereby any organisation collecting 'personal information' must have prior permission (opt-in) from the person identified. Personal Information includes any information that can be used to identify an individual and as we collect names, job titles, photos and email addresses we are bound by the new rules and must adhere to them.
Although 'contact details' form only a small part of our site users who are specifically purchasing data for marketing purposes might want to think again before buying from us.
Where other data controllers / processors see disaster we see opportunity and have exciting plans to enable our clients to continue to reach Housing Association and Local Authority staff. And let's face it, if we can't figure this one out, and we are without a doubt in the best position to do so, where else would you be able go to for high quality housing data?
If you have any questions please get in touch

HousingNet is now recognised as the most comprehensive source of information on housing stock, financial data, management teams, Tenders and Contracts and Business Intelligence for the Social Housing sector. Our clients are made up of Housing Associations & Local Authorities, companies selling products and services to them and Contractors & Suppliers servicing Repairs, Maintenance and Construction contracts.
We update our data every weekday and the data is displayed on HousingNet in real-time so as soon as we add it to the database our clients can access it. Our team consists of researchers, programmers, database technicians and analysts and we are split between London and Nagpur in India where our sister company has been in operation since 2001.
There are currently 3,163 Housing Organisations on our database and we aim to update the top 1250 every 3 months with the remaining at least once a year. Our core product is the Premium Licence that includes Tender and Contract analysis and Business Intelligence mainly concentrating on Construction & Maintenance in the sector.
The Free Annual Licence allows access to all our online data sets and analysis (excluding Tenders, Contracts & Business Intelligence) and the ability to export data to spreadsheets for one year.
The data is constantly updated and the licence lasts for 365 days. We only include individual named contact email addresses ie. john.smith@xyzhousing.com in the Premium licence and even then we only provide them individually. We have over 12,000 high quality email addresses which have a value of their own and could easily be shared or sold on if we allowed them to be exported. All 'admin@' emails are made available for download.
