How the estimate is made
The estimate for 29 Arcot Road is modelled from its 103 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in B28 8LY. 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.

About 29 Arcot Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
29 Arcot Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Birmingham (B28 8LY). It has a recorded floor area of 103 m² (around 1105 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 59). The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
It hasn't traded since January 2007, a hold of 20 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 103 m² the property is well over the postcode median (77 m² across 21 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2016. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £195,000 is 43.4% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£123/sq ft) was about 24.9% below the postcode norm.

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 29 Arcot Road is modelled from its 103 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in B28 8LY. 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 29 Arcot Road. 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 29 Arcot Road was lodged in November 2008 at band E and expired in November 2018, 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. 1 application is matched to 29 Arcot Road. 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 51 schools and 7 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B28 8LY, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- 29 Arcot Road is in council tax band A. 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.
