How the estimate is made
The estimate for 193 Dunstable Road is modelled from its 73 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LU1 1BT. 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 every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 193 Dunstable Road is modelled from its 73 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LU1 1BT. 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 193 Dunstable Road, 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.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 193 Dunstable Road was lodged in September 2017 at band D and is valid until September 2027. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
