- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 61 Moor Crescent is modelled from its 70 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in DH1 1DA. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 61 Moor Crescent. 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 61 Moor Crescent was lodged in February 2017 at band C and is valid until February 2027. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records

- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 16 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from DH1 1DA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 61 Moor Crescent is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
