How the estimate is made
The estimate for 5 Dudley Road is modelled from its 87 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CO4 9AY.

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 5 Dudley Road. 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 5 Dudley Road was lodged in January 2019 at band B and is valid until January 2029. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
