Flat 2, 273 London Road, Portsmouth, PO2 9HE

The latest sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market — a high-water reference point.

Flat 2's EPC is over a decade old — improvements since won't be reflected.

How the estimate is made

The estimate for Flat 2 is modelled from its 71 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PO2 9HE. 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 Flat 2. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.

Reading the EPC
