How the estimate is made

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.

About 11 Emerald Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
11 Emerald Drive is a three-bedroom detached house in Oldham (OL1 4TL). It has a recorded floor area of 119 m² (around 1281 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it C (March 2010); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2003–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £242,000 sits 51.2% above the 2017 sale of £160,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£125/sq ft) was about 28.2% below the postcode norm. On the market in March 2017 and unlisted since — roughly 9 years.

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 11 Emerald Drive is modelled from its 119 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in OL1 4TL. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 11 Emerald Drive. 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 11 Emerald Drive was lodged in September 2015 at band E and expired in September 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 11 Emerald Drive. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 7 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 31 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from OL1 4TL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 11 Emerald Drive is in council tax band C. 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.
