Overview

About 68 Times Square

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

68 Times Square is a mid-terrace house in Tower Hamlets, London, London (E1 8GE). It has a recorded floor area of 34 m² (around 367 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band E. At 34 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (34–96 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 56 units on file. The latest certificate (February 2010) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since September 2009. Between certificates, main heating went from Very Poor to Poor; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from February 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2008–2018, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £418,000 is 15.6% below the 2018 sale of £495,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£1,347/sq ft) was about 97.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 34 m² it sits well below the postcode median (65 m² across 55 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Most recent transfer: September 2018 at £495,000.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 68 Times Square is modelled from its 34 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in E1 8GE. 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 68 Times Square. 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 68 Times Square was lodged in February 2010 at band C and expired in February 2020, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 68 Times Square. 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. The 108 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from E1 8GE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
68 Times Square is in council tax band E. 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.
