Overview

About 12 Browns Lane

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

12 Browns Lane is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Dordon, Tamworth, Tamworth (B78 1TL). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (August 2019) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in January 2014 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include outbuildings.

It hasn't traded since April 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1999–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £237,000 sits 79.5% above the 2007 sale of £132,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£141/sq ft) was about 34.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

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 12 Browns Lane is modelled from its 87 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in B78 1TL. 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. 4 sales are recorded for 12 Browns Lane. 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 12 Browns Lane was lodged in August 2019 at band D and is valid until August 2029. 2 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 12 Browns Lane. 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 6 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B78 1TL, not by walking route.
Council tax band
12 Browns Lane is in council tax band B. 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.
