About 7 Oaks Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
7 Oaks Drive is a five-bedroom detached house in Sutton Coldfield (B75 5AP). It has a recorded floor area of 198 m² (around 2136 sq ft) and council tax band G. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
It hasn't traded since February 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £923,000 is 31.9% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£328/sq ft) was about 29.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 198 m² it's 28.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (276 m² median across 3 EPCs).

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 7 Oaks Drive is modelled from its 198 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in B75 5AP. 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 7 Oaks Drive. 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 7 Oaks Drive was lodged in January 2009 at band C and expired in January 2019, 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. None is matched to 7 Oaks Drive. 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 10 schools and 8 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B75 5AP, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- 7 Oaks Drive 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.
