The property industry has long recognised the need for a faster, more transparent and more predictable homebuying process.
That’s why organisations from across the transaction chain have come together to support Project 28: A Charter for faster, more certain property transactions – an industry-wide initiative focused on reducing the time from sale agreed to exchange to just 28 days.
As part of that commitment, OneSearch has officially joined the Charter as a member, supporting its ambition to improve certainty, transparency and efficiency across the homebuying process.
The Charter was developed through unprecedented collaboration between estate agents, conveyancers, lenders, mortgage brokers and property data providers, all united behind a practical blueprint to improve the homebuying and selling process. Its focus is simple: reduce delays, improve transparency, encourage earlier access to key information and create greater certainty for everyone involved in a transaction.
For OneSearch, the Charter’s commitment to trusted data, upfront information and better collaboration across the transaction chain closely aligns with our own mission to help conveyancers make informed decisions quickly and confidently. As a member, we’re excited to play our part in helping drive positive, lasting change across the industry.
As Robert Steadman, Sales Director at OneSearch, explains:
“The initiative represents a significant opportunity for the industry to come together and accelerate positive change in the homebuying process. By improving access to trusted property information and encouraging greater collaboration across the transaction chain, we can help reduce delays, increase certainty and ultimately deliver better outcomes for consumers and property professionals alike. We’re proud to play our part in helping shape the future of property transactions.”
The challenges facing the homebuying process won’t be solved overnight, but Project 28 represents an important step towards a more efficient, transparent and predictable future. By working together, the industry has a genuine opportunity to reduce friction, lower fall-through rates and improve the experience for buyers, sellers and property professionals alike.
