How the estimate is made

The estimate for Pieces Cottage is modelled from its 379 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CM1 4UA. 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. No sale is recorded for Pieces Cottage, which usually means it hasn't changed hands since 1995 or the sale was not for value. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
