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.

Overview

About Apartment 105

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

Apartment 105 is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Birmingham (B1 2RT). It has a recorded floor area of 45 m² (around 483 sq ft) and council tax band E. At 45 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (45–172 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 21 units on file. The latest certificate (October 2009) shows a C (score 74). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from October 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2003–2004, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £159,000 is 12.5% below the 2004 sale of £181,750, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£376/sq ft) was about 58.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It hasn't traded since April 2004, a hold of 22 years that's notably long for the area. At 45 m² it's 28.8% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (63 m² median across 71 EPCs).

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Apartment 105 is modelled from its 45 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in B1 2RT. 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. 2 sales are recorded for Apartment 105. 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 Apartment 105 was lodged in October 2009 at band C and expired in October 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 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 Apartment 105. 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. The 64 schools and 25 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B1 2RT, not by walking route.
Council tax band
Apartment 105 is in council tax band E. 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.
