Lettings agent address lookup lets staff and applicants find a full, verified UK address from a postcode against Royal Mail PAF instead of typing it by hand. It speeds up tenancy applications, referencing and CRM entry while keeping every address accurate — drawing on the ~31 million UK delivery-point addresses PAF holds across ~1.8 million postcodes.
