What happens next
01Today
You request and pay
Your first folio starts as soon as you pay. Then, if you like, a minute of questions about you and the sale, so your plan, the cash you’ll need and your offer email fit you. Skip them and we assume you are moving home with a 10% deposit.
02Within 2 working days
We send your folio
By email, as a private link to the finished folio: your offer plan first, then every comparable sale, named, and the ten risk checks. Read it on a phone or a computer, in about 30 minutes.
03When you offer
You make your offer
The folio includes your offer email to the agent, and replies for when they push back. Your broker, surveyor or conveyancer gets a copy with only the pages they need, never your plan.
04With a pack
Your next homes, the same way
Send each further address when you’re ready, with nothing more to pay. Each folio follows within 2 working days.
What you’ll get
The answer first. Then the evidence.

Can I trust these numbers?
See a real folio first. Four are published, redacted: what each one found, and all 14 pages.
See the redacted foliosCan I order a folio before I’ve viewed the property?
Yes, and it’s often the better order. A folio before the viewing tells you what to ask on the day and what the listing isn’t saying. We need the home’s postcode, address, asking price and floor area, and the listing link if it’s online.
Will the agent or seller know I’ve ordered one?
No. SettleIQ never contacts the seller, the selling agent or anyone else about your folio, and never makes offers for you. The folio sits at a private link that only you have. For your advisers, it makes a PDF copy with only the pages they need.
Can I cancel?
Your first folio starts as soon as you pay, and you lose the right to cancel it once we send it to you. Folios you haven’t used keep the 14-day right to cancel. The Refund Policy has the details.
What if my offer is rejected or I pull out?
The folio is yours either way. It stays online for 12 months after we send it, and you can save a PDF at any time. With a pack, your other folios are there for the next homes you look at; use them within six months.
Is a folio a valuation or a survey?
No. It is neither. A folio is not a RICS Red Book valuation, it is not a mortgage valuation, and it is not a building survey. It cannot assess structural condition, internal layout, decorative state or hidden defects, because it works from registered data rather than a site visit. Commission a qualified RICS surveyor for physical inspection; the folio is designed to be used alongside one, earlier in the process.
