Held since October 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2005–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at -9.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £127,000 sits 58.7% above the 2008 sale of £80,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£152/sq ft) was about 33.9% below the postcode norm. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 78% of similar EPCs).
