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 59.3% 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).
