OneDome set to connect consumers to the property market with just one click
by Startacus Admin
Moving house is stressful from the moment you start to think about it. Where are you going to move to? How much are you going to get for your current home? Most importantly, does it have a local Chinese takeaway?
Proptech startup OneDome offers the means to reduce much of the headache for house hunters and property professionals alike all across England.
Founded by Babek Ismayil, and launched officially in April 2016, OneDome offers a very simple and intuitive guide to an area’s suitability via a data-driven score system that marks the area out of 10 across a range of key criteria from education and transport to safety and how quiet the area is. 
Each criteria has its own score, and a breakdown. For example, the lifestyle criteria is broken down into 5 sub-criteria, including restaurants, spas, and nightlife. If you disagree with the score, you can give the area your own score and tell OneDome why you think it deserves it.
This score system is on offer for estate agents to implement into their own websites, too, making things easier both for them and their visitors.
Next up is the website’s area guide. This is a detailed guide to various areas of the country - London being the most detailed, with a page for each of 35 boroughs. Each of these pages reads as though written by a native, and breaks down all sorts of aspects of the area, from shopping and transport to house prices and interesting facts about the place.
Lastly is an instant valuation page, which allows you to input some basic details about your current home and, as you might have guessed, receive an instant estimated value.
Estate agents can benefit from all of these things integrated into their website, as well as a booking process for both on-site valuations of the customer’s home and viewings of the agent’s own properties.
With all these simple but hugely useful tools, OneDome seems about as close as it gets to a one-stop shop for those beginning to think of moving.
And investors seem to think so too, as the startup recently raised an impressive £3m in Series A funding, from a group of high profile angel investors (Ultra High Net Worth individuals) and a number of senior executives from some of the largest financial and legal institutions in the world, including Sir Nigel Knowles - former CEO of DLA Piper; Edward Rumble - co founder of Pensato Capital and David Giampaolo - CEO of Pi Capital.
You could say it’s moving up in the world. You see? Moving...
