How the estimate is made
The estimate for 15 Yew Street is modelled from its 53 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WV3 0DB. 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.

About 15 Yew Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
15 Yew Street is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Wolverhampton (WV3 0DB). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 570 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (October 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69). The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 53 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 19 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 32–111 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 19 units on file.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in March 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension and subdivision, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 23.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £116,000 is 23.4% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£165/sq ft) was about 51.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 53 m² it's 28.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (75 m² median across 18 EPCs).

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 15 Yew Street is modelled from its 53 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WV3 0DB. 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 15 Yew 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 15 Yew Street was lodged in February 2015 at band D and expired in February 2025, 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. 1 application is matched to 15 Yew 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 43 schools and 5 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WV3 0DB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 15 Yew Street 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.
