How the estimate is made

The estimate for 3a is modelled from its 203 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in B45 8SZ. 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 3a

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

3a is a five-bedroom detached house in Barnt Green, Birmingham, Birmingham (B45 8SZ). It has a recorded floor area of 203 m² (around 2185 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (July 2016) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since June 2013. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Untraded for 22 years, with the last transfer in August 2004. Across 2001–2004, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £979,000 sits 63.2% above the 2004 sale of £600,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£275/sq ft) was about 35.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Method

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 3a is modelled from its 203 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in B45 8SZ. 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 3a. 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 3a was lodged in July 2016 at band D and expired in July 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 3a. 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 5 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B45 8SZ, not by walking route.
Council tax band
3a is in council tax band G. 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.
