How to Use the Planning Feature in BOOM!
Step 1: Data Studio: map-based search
select the locality you wish to search;
from the LHS toolbar click on the Planning Applications panel;
amend the date range by clicking on the date field and interacting with the date calendar - the default period in any date range search within BOOM! is 1 year;
add a new constraint, in this case, "category" selecting "full" and "outline";
add a new constraint, in this case, "description" adding a keyword "HMO";
click search.
The planning applications that meet the query will render on the screen according to the key which includes category, status, size and age. Some planning applications are not location specific and these are denoted by a "hatched" perimeter colouring; in these cases the planning application node will be rendered at the centre point of the postcode.

What site sourcers, land agents and developers say about BOOM!
The same data, a fraction of the price
Searchland, LandTech and Nimbus charge an average of £3,540 a year. BOOM! is £540 a year with every add-on included, or £216 for the sourcing data on its own — the £20 a month plan, billed annually.
That is £3,000 a year back into your next deal.
We can charge less because we cost less to run: a small team, no sales force, and no venture capital demanding a price rise every year. The platform is also only part of what we do — the others sell a sourcing platform and nothing else.
