- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 73b is modelled from its 52 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CV1 5DZ. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 73b. 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 73b was lodged in December 2017 at band E and is valid until December 2027. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 73b. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures

The 48 schools and 1 stop listed are measured in a straight line from CV1 5DZ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
