Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 7 Abbotswood Close is modelled from its 140 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in GU1 1XA. 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 7 Abbotswood Close. 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
