Valuation method in detail

How the estimate is made: The estimate for 146 Upton Drive is modelled from its 123 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CH2 1BZ. 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 146 Upton Drive. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC: Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 146 Upton Drive was lodged in December 2016 at band B and is valid until December 2026. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
