Overview

About 5 Bernard Street

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

5 Bernard Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Walsall (WS1 2LE). It has a recorded floor area of 125 m² (around 1344 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in September 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 72% of similar EPCs). Across 2000–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 19% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £183,000 is 15.8% above the 2007 sale price.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 5 Bernard Street is modelled from its 125 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WS1 2LE. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 5 Bernard Street. 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 5 Bernard Street was lodged in October 2008 at band E and expired in October 2018, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 5 Bernard Street. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 33 schools and 2 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WS1 2LE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
5 Bernard Street is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
