Familiar. Property-focused. Yours.

An Address Built Around Home.

Think of the name that appears on a for-sale board, a contractor’s van or a property brochure. .house gives that name a clear domestic ending. For a practice such as oakleaf.house, it can gather viewing requests, renovation enquiries and returning clients into one recognisable place.

  • Start with a name clients already recognise. Use your trading title or a straightforward variation instead of a long social-profile link.
  • Signal the sector at a glance. Property professionals and home-service providers can use .house on printed materials and digital channels alike.
  • Leave room to expand. Begin with a simple contact page; add listings, booking tools or a client area later without changing the core address.

Match the ending to your market

.house, .com or .co.uk?

Who do you expect to reach most often? A local home-service firm, a regional estate agent and a national property brand may favour different suffixes. Weigh that audience against name availability and long-term cost.

Practical ways the address can work

A .house Domain for the Property Work You Deliver

A domain earns its keep when clients actually use it. These examples show how one address can support listings, service enquiries or a growing home brand.

Find Your .house

Estate Agency

Make Viewings Easy to Book

Give buyers and sellers one consistent address for listings, appointments and first contact.

Home Services

Turn Street Work into Online Enquiries

Link the domain to quotes, project galleries and contact forms, then print it on vehicles and leaflets.

Interior & Build

Show Completed Work Clearly

Present portfolios, process notes and client stories under a name that signals home-focused expertise.

Name Consistency

Cover the Ways People Search for You

When both spellings are free, register .house and a matching general ending, then point one to the other.

After the name is secured

.house Domain Management, Made Practical

Once registered, the address needs clear instructions for visitors and messages. Use the account tools to keep those connections current, monitor the registration and prepare for any future move.

DNS management

Enter the records supplied by your website platform. Confirm the target carefully before overwriting an existing entry.

Nameserver control

Prefer another provider’s DNS? Apply its nameservers so that provider answers queries for the address.

Renewal management

Note the registration end date early enough to arrange payment and keep the public-facing name active.

Transfer support

Request guidance on shifting registrar responsibility, including the steps the registry expects.

Day-to-day administration

Why Manage Your .house Domain with Truehost?

Buying the name is the first step. These account features help you connect services, handle messages and keep reliable access to the address your clients rely on.

Free DNS management

Update website targets and verification records without purchasing a separate DNS-management product.

Free email forwarding

A forwarder sends incoming messages to an inbox you already use; it does not replace a full hosted mailbox.

2FA and domain lock

Enable two-factor authentication and available domain locks to reduce the chance of unauthorised account or transfer activity.

Coming soon

Free business email

A no-cost mailbox option is planned. Until it arrives, choose a suitable paid service if your team needs one now.

Coming soon

Free website builder

A free builder is also on the roadmap; do not treat it as available when budgeting for a site you need today.

Not available yet: the roadmap items above form no part of the current purchase. They should not be counted as included email hosting or an included website-building plan.

Connect the client journey

How to Put Your .house Domain to Work

A client may first find your practice online, send a question and later book a viewing or service. Each step can share the same identity. Apply each service’s DNS requirements; different providers can still operate behind one domain.

  • Invite people to explore the practice at oakleaf.house.
  • Receive enquiries via [email protected].
  • Offer dedicated spaces such as listings.oakleaf.house and clients.oakleaf.house.

Confirm the spelling first

.house Domain Name Rules

Write the exact spelling before you search. The label to the left of .house must follow the registry’s format rules, and a correctly formed spelling can still be reserved or already held by someone else.

Accepted in a .house name

  • Plain English letters without accent marks
  • Digits, including any that form part of your trading name
  • A hyphen between words, never at the start or end
  • Combinations such as oak-leaf24

Not accepted

  • Beginning or ending the label with a hyphen
  • Spaces, underscores or other symbols
  • Characters that require internationalised-domain encoding in restricted contexts
  • Reserved spellings and names already held by others
Check Sample Spellings

Gather the details you will need

Your .house Registration Checklist

Individuals, agencies and organisations may apply for .house. No industry licence or local-presence requirement is imposed. Provide accurate details for the person or body that will hold the registration.

Information you need

  • The legal holder’s full personal or organisational identity
  • An inbox that will receive registration notices
  • Correct contact and postal information for the holder
  • Your chosen spelling, already checked against the permitted format

What registration does not supply

  • A property licence or professional accreditation
  • Exclusive legal rights to a trading or brand name
  • Hosted mailboxes or web hosting as part of the name alone
  • A permanent registration with no future payments

Before you register

Check related endings

Think about how someone who hears your practice name might type it. Search any important variation before printing an address you may later want to change.

Review existing rights

A successful availability check is not a trade-mark clearance. Look at existing businesses and relevant rights before adopting a name for commercial use.

Use a lasting email address

Select an inbox you can still reach even if this domain later becomes unavailable. That simplifies registration queries and urgent account notices.

Protect a working address

What Happens If .house Expires?

An expired address can interrupt more than a website: contact forms, password resets and client messages may all depend on it. Arrange renewal before the end date. The registry’s recovery window is a final chance, not a planned renewal method.

01Resolving

Active

Confirm that payment arrangements and contact details remain usable while the registration is current.

02Action due

Renewal Due

The displayed renewal charge is TSh 148,356. Complete payment early, especially if approval from another person is required.

03Grace period

Expired

During the initial grace window after expiry the address may still resolve. Act at once rather than treating continued service as proof of renewal.

04Redemption

Recovery window

Once suspension begins, connected services stop. Recovery may still be possible for a limited time and can involve extra fees.

05Released

Cancelled

After the recovery window closes the unrenewed name is scheduled for release. Another party may then register it; recovery is no longer assured.

Change registrar without renaming

Already Hold a .house Domain?

You can switch the registrar without selecting a new trading address. Prepare account access and DNS details first, then follow the standard transfer process. Registrar transfer and website migration remain separate tasks.

Transfer — TSh 115,596
  1. 01

    Prepare account access

    Locate the current registrar login and confirm who is authorised to request changes. Keep a record of the working DNS configuration.

  2. 02

    Start the receiving order

    Begin a Truehost transfer for the exact .house spelling and obtain the instructions for accepting it.

  3. 03

    Finish the transfer steps

    Follow the authorisation process from the current registrar and Truehost. Confirm that existing website and mail destinations remain correct after the handover.

Questions before you decide

.house Domain FAQs

Practical answers for property professionals and home-service providers choosing an address, connecting services or moving an existing registration.

Is .house limited to licensed estate agents?

No. Any individual or organisation may hold a .house registration. There is no industry-licence or local-presence requirement. The applicant must still supply accurate details and meet the registry’s terms.

Does the first-year price continue every year?

Not necessarily. The registration figure is 21.33 USD; the separate renewal figure is TSh 148,356. Plan ongoing costs from the renewal amount and review the payable total before each order.

Does .house improve search rankings?

No ending guarantees a ranking position. Choose an address that fits your clients, then focus on useful content, a usable website and a clear description of the service. The domain should support that work, not replace it.

Can I register the name before the website is finished?

Yes. You can secure an available registration while the site is still being planned. Keep contact details and renewal arrangements up to date, and connect hosting when you have pages ready to publish.

Does registration include a working email inbox?

No hosted mailbox is created simply by registering an address. Choose a mailbox product if you need to send and receive client email; a forwarding feature serves a different purpose and routes messages into an existing inbox.

Must website and email use the same provider?

No. Your website can use one compatible platform and your mail another. Apply each provider’s DNS instructions carefully so a website change does not unintentionally interrupt incoming messages.

Can I keep .house indefinitely?

You can retain the registration by renewing it while eligible and complying with the applicable terms. It is not a one-time permanent purchase. The registry allows durations up to ten years; the options offered in your order appear at checkout.

What if my preferred practice name is already taken?

Try a clear, relevant variation that clients can remember, or consider a different ending. Avoid a confusing imitation of another business. Do not assume that an inactive-looking website means the registration is available to buy.

Should a matching .com point to the same website?

If you control both registrations, you can choose a primary address and configure the other to redirect there. Buying .house does not automatically give you .com; check and acquire the matching registration separately if it matters to your brand.

Why must registration details stay accurate?

The registry or registrar may need to contact you about the registration. Outdated details can make validation, account recovery and urgent notices harder to handle. Update them when your business moves, changes ownership or replaces its contact inbox.

Is transferring a .house domain the same as moving hosting?

No. A registrar transfer changes who administers the registration. Website files, databases and mailboxes may remain where they are. If you also want new hosting, plan that migration separately and coordinate any DNS changes.

Can I recover a .house after services stop?

Possibly, if the registration is still inside the registry’s recovery window. Contact the registrar promptly once expiry is noticed; once the name is fully released, recovery is no longer guaranteed and another party may register it.
