- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 5 Derby Street is modelled from its 57 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BB1 5HR. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 5 Derby Street. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.

The latest one for 5 Derby Street was lodged in February 2011 at band C and expired in February 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.

- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 39 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BB1 5HR, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- 5 Derby Street 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.
