Movera has joined the Open Property Data Association (OPDA) to support the transformation of the homebuying process through the sharing of digital property information across the mortgage and property industries.

Founded to revolutionise the home-moving experience, Movera provides digital tools and services that help make the homebuying process something to be celebrated – not endured. By integrating with OPDA’s open data standards, Movera aims to enhance transparency, reduce administrative burdens, and create a faster, more customer-friendly transaction process.

Movera is the latest in a growing list of organisations to join the OPDA underscoring the industry’s momentum toward digitisation and customer-centric solutions. The deal also comes just days after the government’s recent commitment to digitising the homebuying process.

Major mortgage lenders NatWest Group, HSBC Nationwide and Lloyds Banking Group joined last year, alongside members such as Atom bank, MAB, and Coadjute. The addition of Movera further strengthens OPDA’s drive for open standards, trust and greater transparency in property transactions.

Andrew Taylor, chief technology ffficer at Movera, said: “Joining OPDA represents a significant milestone in our mission to simplify and streamline the home-moving process. We are committed to leveraging technology to create a more seamless and transparent experience for homebuyers. By working alongside OPDA and its members, we aim to accelerate the adoption of digital services that will drive greater efficiency and improve customer outcomes across the industry. With OPDA’s framework, we can ensure that critical property data is accessible, accurate, and secure, which will benefit both customers and industry professionals alike.”

Maria Harris, chair of OPDA, added: “Movera’s membership is another step forward in transforming the home-buying process. Their expertise in streamlining transactions and commitment to innovation align perfectly with OPDA’s goals. Along with the work of our other members, Movera will help drive the adoption of open data standards, reducing inefficiencies and improving what is currently a frustrating experience for homebuyers.”
