Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- We don't publish an estimate for Cartref because there is no EPC to tell the model the home's size and specification. The full report sets its records against recent comparable sales in AL4 0QW.
- Where sold prices come from

- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Cartref. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
