Making the Internet work for you

Launch of the Open House Innovation Lab.

All The Write Stuff launches the Open House Innovation Lab.

The lab will explore the feasibility and potential of a peer to peer collaboration platform for the UK Property Market and seek to find strategic collaboration partners to help define and develop the property service software and APIs.

The UK Property Market is ripe for disruption.

Says digital transformation consultant Kevin Hopkins.

The UK Government is committed to roll out Smart Meters to all domestic properties by 2020 and this provides the opportunity for Smart Homes connected to the Internet to have persistent online property profiles much like people do on FaceBook and LinkedIn. Placing your property on the market might be as simple as setting your property profile to For Sale and adjusting the privacy settings to public. This will completely disrupt the existing property portals and the current estate agency model. In their place a peer-to-peer collaboration platform will emerge cantered on Smart Homes, persistent property profiles and Blockchain technology. This will give home movers greater control, transparency and trust over the house purchase process together with reasonably priced digital property services accessible 24/7 from their Smart Phones.

The peer to peer platform will disrupt the current estate agency model on both price and service. The aim of the Innovation Lab is to collaboratively explore these ideas together with the technology and APIs required to create the necessary digital ecosystem to make it all work. This will provide the seamless digital end-to-end services and immediate online transactions supporting the entire customer journey for home movers that the next generation expects.
