Research sources
Keep useful information connected to its origin and limits.
LOF can organise source references for early property research. Inclusion does not make a source current, complete or authoritative.
Official public records
Planning, land, company and other official-source references may provide useful context. Their coverage, status and update cycle must still be checked at source.
Dated observations
Site and locality observations describe what a reviewer recorded at a point in time. They do not establish occupation, availability, condition or rights.
Third-party information
Published datasets and external material may be incomplete, delayed, licensed or wrong. LOF records provenance rather than treating aggregation as verification.
User and team material
Authorised users may add leads, notes and documents to a private workspace. That material is not a public source and is not exposed through public discovery.
Inference and priority
A signal, comparison or score can help decide what to investigate next. It is not proof, a valuation, investment advice or a forecast.
Current checks
Ownership, title, availability, planning, access, constraints, viability, value and investment suitability require appropriate current checks and professional advice.
Public versus private
Source transparency does not mean publishing the research record.
Private evidence, contacts, ownership investigations, scores, working notes and tenant identifiers remain workspace-bound. Only deliberately selected permitted fields can appear in an approved shared profile.
