Valuation method in detail

How the estimate is made: The estimate for St James Fold is modelled from its 63 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BB1 2LA.

Area figures: Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 28 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BB1 2LA, not by walking route.
Council tax band: St James Fold 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.
