How the estimate is made
The estimate for 18 Desmond Rochford Way is modelled from its 88 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in TA1 5FF. 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 18 Desmond Rochford Way. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC

Planning records

Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 11 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from TA1 5FF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
