Is Your Agency DMCCA 2024 Compliant?
Why LiDAR is the New "Gold Standard" for Material Information
The High Cost of "Approximate"
In the luxury property market, accuracy has always been a sign of quality. But as of April 2025, it became a legal necessity. Under the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024 (DMCCA), the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has shifted the burden of proof onto the agent.
Providing "Material Information" isn't just about listing the number of bedrooms; it's about the precision of the data. If a Gross Internal Area (GIA) is misstated, it is now classified as a "misleading omission." The penalties? Direct fines of up to 10% of global turnover—without the need for a court order.
Eliminating Human Error with LiDAR
At RAB Immersive, we recognized that traditional tape measures and "guesstimated" wall thicknesses are no longer sufficient for the compliance era. That is why we have invested in LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) technology via the Galois M2.
Unlike traditional methods, our scanner:
• Captures Millions of Data Points: Creating a millimetre-accurate "Digital Twin" of the estate.
• Verified GIA Reports: We provide defensible, ANSI-standard floor plans that meet every requirement for "Material Information" disclosure.
• 16K Visual Transparency: Our immersive tours ensure that no detail is obscured, protecting agents from claims of "hidden defects" or misleading marketing.
Your Legal Safeguard: £1,000,000 PI Insurance
We don't just provide the data; we stand behind it. To provide our agency partners with total peace of mind, RAB Immersive carries £1,000,000 in Professional Indemnity (PI) insurance.
When you use our LiDAR-backed surveys, you aren't just getting a floor plan—you are transferring the technical and legal risk of that data to a specialist. In 2026, that isn't just a service; it's an insurance policy for your agency's reputation.
