Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 178 Marleigh Avenue is modelled from its 116 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CB5 8BG. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 178 Marleigh Avenue. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC

Planning records

Area figures
