About 85 Rayleigh Road
85 Rayleigh Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Wolverhampton (WV3 0AU). It has a recorded floor area of 112 m² (around 1206 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in September 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since May 2001, a hold of 25 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £151,000 sits 331.4% above the 2001 sale of £35,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£29/sq ft) was about 49.4% below the postcode norm.
