Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Solent Court is modelled from its 39 m² EPC floor area, its 7 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BH5 1HL.

Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 7 sales are recorded for Solent Court. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.

Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Solent Court. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
