About 98 Upper Marshall Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
98 Upper Marshall Street is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Birmingham (B1 1LJ). It has a recorded floor area of 52 m² (around 560 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band C. At 52 m² this is the 21st smallest of 89 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 40–94 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 89 units on file. Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (April 2024) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. Main heating runs on electricity.
Today's modelled estimate of £145,000 is 21.6% below the 2007 sale of £185,000, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£331/sq ft) was about 36% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It hasn't traded since August 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 52 m² it's 17.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (63 m² median across 88 EPCs).

- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 98 Upper Marshall Street is modelled from its 52 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in B1 1LJ. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 98 Upper Marshall Street. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 98 Upper Marshall Street was lodged in April 2024 at band C and is valid until April 2034. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 98 Upper Marshall Street. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point.

- Council tax band
- 98 Upper Marshall Street is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
