Pre-Acquisition Site Intelligence

PropVeritas

Satellite signals, geotech data and financial modelling combined into a single report before capital is committed and before technical due diligence is instructed.

Built within the European Space Agency Business Incubation Centre · Noordwijk, Netherlands

Capital Is Committed Before Any Independent Data Exists.

The earliest stage of a real estate transaction is structurally blind. Investors operate on seller-provided information until technical due diligence begins — typically four to six weeks after a price has been agreed and exclusivity entered.

Physical land risk, contamination history, flood exposure and development viability are either unknown or unverified at the moment the commitment is made. PropVeritas closes this gap: a report generated before heads of terms, before TDD is instructed, before capital is at risk.

The Gap

4 to 6 weeks with no independent view

Technical due diligence is instructed after exclusivity is entered. Physical risk emerges too late to avoid sunk cost or negotiate from strength.

The Market

No equivalent product in Europe, Gulf or East Africa

In the Netherlands, UK, France, UAE and East Africa, no equivalent to CoStar or ATTOM exists. Satellite EO is the only scalable independent intelligence layer available in these markets.

The Mandate

Regulation is converting risk into financial liability

GRESB 2024 made physical climate risk a mandatory scored component ($9T GAV in scope). EU Taxonomy DNSH, SFDR PAI indicators, MEES, Dutch nitrogen permits and UAE Federal Decree No. 11/2024 all create hard financial consequences for undisclosed land risk.

Two Products. One Decision Framework.

PropVeritas delivers physical land intelligence and development viability in a single workflow, upstream of technical due diligence.

Product 01

Site Screening

Six satellite signals translated directly into investor consequences. Contamination risk, flood exposure and total risk premium quantified before a site is shortlisted. Every signal is cited to its source — no black boxes.
