Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.

- We don't publish an estimate for 20 House Lane 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 9ET.
- Where sold prices come from

- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 15 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from AL4 9ET, not by walking route.
