Overview

About Upper Flat

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

Upper Flat is a semi-detached house in Wolverhampton (WV1 4PA). It has a recorded floor area of 54 m² (around 581 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in May 2009 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good, lighting went from Poor to Very Good and main heating went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since October 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs). Across 2005–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 42.5% per year.

Valuation method in detail

How the estimate is made: The estimate for Upper Flat is modelled from its 54 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WV1 4PA. 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. 2 sales are recorded for Upper Flat. 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 Upper Flat was lodged in March 2014 at band E and expired in March 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records: Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Upper Flat. 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 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 37 schools and 5 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WV1 4PA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band: Upper Flat is in council tax band A. 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.
