At 57 m² this is the 25th smallest of 29 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 23–66 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (74 versus a worst of 19). Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (July 2023) shows a C (score 74). When first surveyed in June 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 3 bands since.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 23 Cressy Houses is modelled from its 57 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in E1 3JE. 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 23 Cressy Houses. 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 23 Cressy Houses was lodged in July 2023 at band C and is valid until July 2033. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 23 Cressy Houses. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 19 months, which places each incident at an approximate point.

- Council tax band
- 23 Cressy Houses 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.
