About Apartment 8
Apartment 8 is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Birmingham (B1 2AJ). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. At 78 m² this is the 6th smallest of 8 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 56–121 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (June 2012); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Last changed hands 10 years ago, in June 2016. Today's modelled estimate of £234,000 is 37.6% above the 2016 sale price.
