How the estimate is made
The estimate for 43 Preston New Road is modelled from its 51 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BB2 6AE. 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.
