Who We Are
Checkboard was founded with a clear vision, simply to bring innovative solutions to the often complex and stressful world of conveyancing. We understand that buying or selling a property is one of the most significant decisions people make in their lives. Therefore, our goal is to provide a platform that minimises stress and boosts efficiency, whichever role you play in the conveyancing process. James Owusu, founder of Checkboard said:
“Checkboard was set up during covid following an acquisition of buy to let properties. I needed to verify a large number of tenants before picking one and wanted a quick way to achieve this task without having to enter all their data myself. I could not find a solution on the market that did not require me to choose the tenant i wanted to rent the property to prior to verifying their information. I decided to build a solution to help me achieve this task. I then realised there were a number of other people in the same situation. One thing led to another and here we are.”
