How the estimate is made

The estimate for The Old Sorting Office is modelled from its 26 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BH1 1AX. 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 The Old Sorting Office. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
