Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 16 Cottesmore Close is modelled from its 221 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LE7 2DJ. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 16 Cottesmore Close. 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 16 Cottesmore Close was lodged in December 2014 at band B and expired in December 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let.

Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point.
