About Flat 9

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

Flat 9 is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Manchester (M1 5JW). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (September 2024) shows a C (score 79), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 4 certificates since August 2013. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. Main heating runs on electricity. At 77 m² this is the 17th smallest of 18 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 38–78 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 18 units on file. Other recorded features include a balcony. Period features are noted in the property record. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

Held since January 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 77 m² it's 20.3% larger than the typical home in the postcode (64 m² median across 27 EPCs). Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £243,000 is 25.9% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£233/sq ft) was about 32.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
