Overview

About Echo Building

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

Echo Building is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Sunderland (SR1 1XD). It has a recorded floor area of 82 m² (around 883 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band C. At 82 m² this is the 70th smallest of 89 units on EPC record in Echo Building, where floor areas span 48–129 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 89 units on file. The latest certificate (June 2013) shows a C (score 72). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 87). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from June 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £109,000 is 39.4% below the 2007 sale of £180,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. It hasn't traded since June 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
