Six principles. No exceptions.

01

Independence over commissions

We take no referral fee or kickback from selling agents, developers, lenders, or solicitors. If we connect you to a vetted independent professional, you pay them directly — we never get paid by them. Every recommendation in your dossier is what we believe is right, not what pays us the most.

02

Specificity over platitudes

“Always consult a local lawyer” is true and useless. We name PEUAT, AL containment, DPE class G, EWS1, leasehold tail risk, plusvalía, okupa hotspots — so you know exactly what to ask the lawyer you eventually engage.

03

Public data, made public-grade

HM Land Registry, DVF, INE, Catastro — these are public registers paid for by taxpayers. They should not require SPARQL skills to query. We make them digestible without paywalling the source.

04

Honest AI labels

Where we use AI estimates instead of registry data — chiefly Portugal and Spain right now — we say so on the report, every time. We will not pretend an LLM guess is a chartered survey.

05

Pay once for a one-off life event

Most people buy one or two properties abroad in a lifetime. Charging a monthly subscription for a one-off life event is hostile to customers. Our subscription is for the people who actually do this every week.

06

Limits, declared up front

Outpost is software, not a chartered surveyor, not a solicitor, not a tax adviser. We will tell you what to ask. The professionals you engage tell you the answer. We will never blur this line for marketing.
