Overview

About 2 City Exchange

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

2 City Exchange is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Hull (HU1 1AA). It has a recorded floor area of 36 m² (around 388 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. At 36 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across 2 City Exchange (36–69 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (40 versus a best of 75). The latest certificate (May 2019) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (April 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.

It hasn't traded since April 2002, a hold of 24 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £118,000 sits 114.7% above the 2002 sale of £54,950. 6 planning records sit against the property, 5 approved, 0 refused.

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 2 City Exchange is modelled from its 36 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in HU1 1AA. 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 2 City Exchange. 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 2 City Exchange was lodged in May 2019 at band E and is valid until May 2029. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 6 applications are matched to 2 City Exchange. 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 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 23 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HU1 1AA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
2 City Exchange 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.
