An outcode is the first part of a postcode, which can be between 2-4 characters, i.e. E2, SE26.
Outcodes form a vital part of market views which are setup for use in reports and Market email alerts.
Each market view can consist of up to 10 outcodes, and sectors within each. Market views act as a predefined set of property and area criteria.
Best practice
Rather than only having outcodes for the key areas that you cover, consider adding outcodes for the areas that you wish to break in to, which can help you expand your reach into new regions. By adding these outcodes, you can keep an eye on what the market is doing and it's performance, and look for additional areas where you may also perform well in
