What Acadata does

Acadata is a UK-focused housing market data and insights provider founded in 1993, producing monthly House Price Index reports for England and Wales and for Scotland. Its core products are recurring, subscription-style index reports that track residential property price trends and momentum, with underlying data sourced from e.surv's valuation activity. The company serves two main B2B customer segments: corporate business clients requiring housing market data and property valuation insights for decision-making, and media and research organizations requiring authoritative indices for reporting and analysis. Its go-to-market is sales-led, with direct engagement of corporate clients and media via dedicated email contacts, mailing-list subscriptions, and an Advice Hub / Knowledge Base content channel for broader brand presence. Acadata was acquired by e.surv Chartered Surveyors in 2025; the standalone Acadata website has been redirected to esurv.co.uk, and the same housing market insights and reports are now delivered under the e.surv brand as part of its Market Insight and corporate-client offering. The company operates with 1-10 employees, has no disclosed revenue, and has no public AI capabilities. Its competitive positioning rests on its long-running proprietary UK housing indices and integration with e.surv's national RICS-qualified surveyor network and ISO-certified operations.
