Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 11 Ruggles Close is modelled from its 133 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in ME3 8RU. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 11 Ruggles Close. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC

Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 1 school and 17 stops listed are measured in a straight line from ME3 8RU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
