Movera shows continued commitment to market reform by signing Project 28 Charter

12 September 2025

Movera, the leading home moving group, has shown its support for Project 28: A Charter for faster, more certain property transactions. This is part of Movera’s ongoing dedication to improving the homebuying process. Setting an ambitious 28-day completion target from sale agreed to sale exchange, the Charter, initiated by Landmark Information Group, sets out to streamline the UK’s broken property transaction process and save estate agents, conveyancers and home buyers time and money.

Movera is one of 22 of the UK’s leading property sector organisations to sign the Project 28 charter. Movera and the other signatories pledge to implement eight commitments which aim to improve efficiency, data transparency and restore trust and certainty for both buyers and sellers. In particular, the Charter seeks to ensure that all the necessary relevant information is available upfront and that all parties in the transaction process are aligned in their efforts to reduce the transaction timeline to just 28-days.

Movera is a party to a number of initiatives which aim to bring together ambitious home moving brands from across the sector. It is already a member of the Open Property Data Association (OPDA) and integrates with its open data standards to streamline processes with the aim to ensure buyers and sellers only have to provide information once. It also advocates for the use of the National Property Transaction Network (NPTN) put in place by LMS. This is an open-network platform that allows data to be shared equally across every stage of the transactional process.

Movera’s vision, is to work with other organisations to revolutionise the home-moving process through digitisation, creating moving and remortgaging experiences that can be celebrated, not just tolerated.

Nick Hale, CEO at Movera commented:

“As a group we are passionate about advocating for digitisation and data-sharing across the home-moving sector. The tools and services that we provide to our clients align closely with the ethos of this charter. However, we cannot do it alone. With the average UK property transaction currently taking over 100 days to complete, it’s clear that the market is in drastic need of reform and we stand behind all initiatives that advocate for broader industry change and the coming together of so many key sector organisations to make the proposed 28-day transaction target a reality.”
