- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 3 Rowcroft Road is modelled from its 140 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in RG2 9RU. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 3 Rowcroft Road. 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 3 Rowcroft Road was lodged in November 2023 at band B and is valid until November 2033. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
