The selling agent works for the seller. Abode works with you—from understanding what you can afford, to collecting your keys.
True Affordability planning considers deposit, mortgage, stamp duty, legal, survey, moving and running costs—giving you three figures: comfortable, target and maximum budget.
A verified profile showing buying position, deposit range, AIP status and solicitor readiness—so agents and developers know you are serious.
Whole-market discovery with conversational search, imported listings, AI-assisted comparisons and personalised Abode Property Scores.
Self-directed or adviser-accompanied viewings with structured checklists, question lists, note capture and post-viewing reports.
Offer Strategy Packs with comparable evidence, listing history, negotiation range and buyer-readiness proof. A human adviser negotiates on your behalf.
Transaction Command Centre tracks mortgage, conveyancing, searches, survey, enquiries, exchange and completion with milestone visibility.
Keys collected, Home Passport activated, and access to the complete Abode home lifecycle—moving, interiors, maintenance and services.
The output is an Abode Buying Plan—not just a maximum-price calculation.
We consider deposit, borrowing, stamp duty, legal, survey, moving, running costs and reserves—then give you three figures.
