About 5 Carless Avenue

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

5 Carless Avenue is a mid-terrace house in Birmingham (B17 9EG). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2020) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump.

Today's modelled estimate of £345,000 is 13.7% below the 2021 sale of £400,000, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 5 Carless Avenue is modelled from its 92 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in B17 9EG. 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 5 Carless Avenue. 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 5 Carless Avenue was lodged in March 2020 at band E and is valid until March 2030. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 5 Carless Avenue. 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 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 39 schools and 3 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B17 9EG, not by walking route.
Council tax band
5 Carless Avenue is in council tax band D. 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.
