Flat description: example and free generator

Flats carry more material information than almost any other property type: lease length, service charge, ground rent and how the block is managed can shape a buyer's mortgage as much as their decision. The common pitfall is burying these details to keep the copy upbeat, which simply wastes viewings on buyers the numbers do not suit. Be precise about the floor, lift access, outside space and parking too.

Tips for writing flat listings

  • Put lease length, service charge and ground rent where buyers can find them; a listing that hides the numbers attracts viewings from buyers the numbers do not suit.
  • State the floor the flat is on, whether there is a lift, and how the building is entered - these are among the first questions any applicant asks.
  • Describe outside space precisely: a balcony, a Juliet balcony and access to communal gardens are three different things.
  • Be explicit about parking - allocated, permit, first-come or none - and whether any space is included in the sale or rented separately.
  • Refer to the management arrangement in factual terms (managing agent in place, residents' management company); avoid calling a block "well managed" unless you can support it.

Portals will also ask for the remaining Part B and C fields — utilities, construction, parking, flood risk and any restrictions. Our free material information checklist covers all of them.

The generator above works from a template. For AI-written flat descriptions, sign up free and generate straight away — three listings a month, no card. The app prompts you for the material information fields (council tax band, tenure, EPC rating, heating, parking, flood risk, restrictions and the rest) and reproduces the values you supply, verbatim, as a portal-ready block alongside the description. Anything you leave blank is simply left out rather than guessed at — and checking that what you enter is accurate and complete is still your job, not the app's. Paid plans are on the pricing page.
