About 9 Oak Close
9 Oak Close is an end-of-terrace house in Tipton (DY4 0AY). It has a recorded floor area of 43 m² (around 463 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 43 m² this is the 4th smallest of 23 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 36–50 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 23 units on file.
It hasn't traded since November 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2004–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 19.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £116,000 sits 61.1% above the 2007 sale of £72,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£156/sq ft) was about 67.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
