About 18 Downing Road
18 Downing Road is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Dagenham (RM9 6NR). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in October 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. 11 years since the last transfer (April 2015).
