About 8 Ross Street
8 Ross Street is a mid-terrace house in Oldham (OL8 1UA). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2015) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since February 2010. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in December 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1999–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 15% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £117,000 sits 290% above the 2009 sale of £30,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£41/sq ft) was about 48.4% below the postcode norm.
