Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.

- We don't publish an estimate for 161 Penns Lane because there is no EPC to tell the model the home's size and specification. The full report sets its records against recent comparable sales in B72 1BN.
- 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 161 Penns Lane. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.

- Planning records

- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 33 schools and 3 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B72 1BN, not by walking route.
