Overview

About Flat 3

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

Flat 3 is a mid-terrace house in Wolverhampton (WV3 7DS). It has a recorded floor area of 50 m² (around 538 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 50 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across the building (31–50 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (October 2025) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in July 2012 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.

Today's modelled estimate of £150,000 is 76% below the 2026 sale of £625,000, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£1,161/sq ft) was about 783.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. A recent sale: £625,000 in January 2026. At 50 m² it's 26.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (68 m² median across 30 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 70% of similar EPCs).

Method

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 Flat 3 is modelled from its 50 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WV3 7DS. 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 Flat 3. 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 Flat 3 was lodged in October 2025 at band E and is valid until October 2035. 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 Flat 3. 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 34 schools and 6 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WV3 7DS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Flat 3 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.
