WhatHouse? is a UK property portal, featuring new homes[1] property for sale, for sale across the UK from most major home builders in the UK.

Founded as a magazine in 1978 to provide consumers with information on new homes for sale, as well as interiors and gardens, WhatHouse? was acquired by its present owners in 1988, when it merged with homefinder magazine. WhatHouse? moved online in 2005, becoming www.whathouse.com.

The WhatHouse? Awards,[2][3][4] an annual housebuilder awards ceremony which judges the best new homes in the UK, is also part of the WhatHouse? brand and the 34th[5] such ceremony will take place in November 2015.

WhatHouse? is owned by independent publisher WhatHouse Digital Ltd.[6] Its sister company, Globalspan Media Ltd publishes Show House magazine, a monthly magazine for housebuilders and organises the annual WhatHouse? Awards.
