Methodology
How Buyer Compass works
Buyer Compass is built to help London property buyers think more clearly, not to overwhelm them with generic listings or overconfident claims.
Our approach combines practical buyer-side judgement, structured research, and clear boundaries around what we do and do not claim.
Editorial standard
What shapes our resources
Practical buyer questions
We focus on the recurring questions buyers actually face: trade-offs, area filtering, leasehold friction, pre-viewing judgement, and decision structure.
Source-led context
Where factual context matters, Buyer Compass should rely on credible source categories such as GOV.UK, Land Registry, ONS, Bank of England, borough planning material, and other reputable public or commercial sources where appropriate.
Clear separation
We aim to distinguish facts, interpretation, and opinion rather than blending them together carelessly.
Bounded guidance
Buyer Compass is a decision-support brand, not a substitute for legal, mortgage, tax, valuation, or regulated professional advice.
Scope
What Buyer Compass is designed to do
Buyer Compass is designed to help buyers ask better questions, filter options more intelligently, and approach property decisions with more structure.
It is not designed to provide certainty, guaranteed outcomes, or regulated professional advice. Where specialist advice is needed, buyers should still rely on qualified professionals.
