Overview

About Flat 2

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

Flat 2 is a property in Hamilton, Leicester, Leicester (LE5 1BH). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 661 sq ft) and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2009) returns a B (score 83), comfortably above the UK average. The latest certificate is from July 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 61 m² this is the 4th smallest of 7 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 45–65 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the top.

It hasn't traded since August 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 61 m² it's 26.8% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (84 m² median across 68 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 82% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £119,000 is 35.2% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£133/sq ft) was about 20.6% below the postcode norm.

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 Flat 2 is modelled from its 61 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LE5 1BH. 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 Flat 2. 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 Flat 2 was lodged in July 2009 at band B and expired in July 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Flat 2. 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 31 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LE5 1BH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Flat 2 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.
