- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for The Moorings is modelled from its 149 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in B94 6AP. 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 The Moorings. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.

- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 2 schools and 16 stops listed are measured in a straight line from B94 6AP, not by walking route.

- The Moorings 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.
