How the estimate is made

The estimate for 28b is modelled from its 38 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in FY2 9AS. 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.

Overview

About 28b

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

28b is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Bispham, Blackpool, Blackpool (FY2 9AS). It has a recorded floor area of 38 m² (around 409 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1930-1949. At 38 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (38–153 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (October 2023) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in December 2008 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in January 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 38 m² it sits well below the postcode median (103 m² across 13 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 85% of similar EPCs). 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Across 1997–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £106,000 is 47.2% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£176/sq ft) was about 61.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

How to read this page

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 28b is modelled from its 38 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in FY2 9AS. 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 28b. 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 28b was lodged in October 2023 at band C and is valid until October 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. None is matched to 28b. 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 19 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from FY2 9AS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
