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 Mortimer House is modelled from its 125 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in HR3 5DF. 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. No sale is recorded for Mortimer House, which usually means it hasn't changed hands since 1995 or the sale was not for value. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.

- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Mortimer House was lodged in September 2019 at band F and is valid until September 2029. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 3 applications are matched to Mortimer House. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
