- 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 18 Leonard Gould Way. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC

The latest one for 18 Leonard Gould Way was lodged in February 2011 at band B and expired in February 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let.

- Council tax band
- 18 Leonard Gould Way is in council tax band E. 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.
