How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Fifth Avenue is modelled from its 86 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in B9 5RB. 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.

About 1 Fifth Avenue
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 Fifth Avenue is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Birmingham (B9 5RB). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A.

Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80).
It hasn't traded since November 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2005–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 28.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £178,000 sits 58.9% above the 2007 sale of £112,000.

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 1 Fifth Avenue is modelled from its 86 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in B9 5RB. 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 1 Fifth Avenue. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC

- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 1 Fifth Avenue. 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 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 62 schools and 7 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B9 5RB, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- 1 Fifth Avenue is in council tax band A. 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.
