- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 2 Leylands Farm Cottages is modelled from its 120 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in DN5 7SY.

- 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 2 Leylands Farm Cottages. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC

- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point.
