SafeMove Joins the Project 28 Charter to Help Accelerate Property Transactions

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, SafeMove has officially joined the Charter as a member, supporting its ambition to improve certainty, transparency, and efficiency across the homebuying journey.

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 transform the homebuying and selling process. Its focus is simple: reduce delays, improve transparency, encourage earlier access to key upfront information, and create greater certainty for everyone involved in a transaction.

Driving Innovation and Integrity in Property Data

For SafeMove, the Charter’s core principles align seamlessly with our long-standing commitment to providing high-quality, trusted data which forms the basis of our CON29DW search reports.

Vicky Farrell, Service Delivery Manager at SafeMove, said:

"As the source of the CON29DW for the Yorkshire Water region, SafeMove has been a trusted partner with conveyancers and resellers alike since 2001. This has given us a firsthand understanding of how critical accurate and trusted data is to the conveyancing process. Providing high-integrity property information upfront is essential to eliminating unnecessary friction, reducing fall-throughs, and bringing certainty to buyers and sellers.

We are proud to join our industry peers in supporting the Project28Charter. By committing to trusted data sources, digital innovation, and seamless cross-sector collaboration, we can help transform property transactions and make the ambitious 28-day goal from sale agreed to exchange a reality."

Shaping the Future of Homebuying

Achieving a 28-day transaction timeline requires every link in the chain to work smarter and more collaboratively. By backing the Project 28 Charter, SafeMove looks forward to playing an active role alongside our industry partners to drive lasting, positive change for conveyancers, buyers, and sellers alike.
