Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- We don't publish an estimate for 12 Birch Close 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 B78 2JN.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 12 Birch Close. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.

- There is no Energy Performance Certificate on the public register for 12 Birch Close. A valid EPC is needed to sell or let a home in England and Wales, and lasts 10 years.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 12 Birch Close. 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 3 schools and 29 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B78 2JN, not by walking route.
