Written by English | Kristina Berg | Jun 17, 2025 6:00:00 AM

For today's real estate agents, quick access to the right information is crucial to making informed decisions, providing accurate advice and building trust with sellers and buyers. Here we take a closer look at how real estate information is used in the everyday work of real estate agents - and how Metria helps agents work more efficiently with reliable data.

Why brokers search for real estate data

When brokers google for solutions, they often use terms like "buy real estate information", "API real estate data" or "real estate register for brokers". The need behind the searches is clear: they want reliable, detailed and up-to-date information on real estate, land and buildings - access to current, detailed and statutory real estate information that can be integrated into their workflow - without unnecessary hassle.

Common uses by estate agents

Retrieve owner/legal title information to ensure the right person is contacted.
Display building data, living and ancillary space, assessment data to facilitate valuation.
Present property boundaries and plot size visually in prospectus.
Avoid legal pitfalls by verifying plan status or easements.

Broker decision factors when choosing a data provider

When brokers choose a provider, the following are crucial:

Data timeliness and coverage (all of Sweden, updated daily)
Availability via user-friendly web service or via API to CRM/broker support
Pricing model that matches usage (per search, volume-based or subscription)
Combination of maps + owner info + building info in one solution
