Range includes ±7% for the estimate itself. Effects are typical ranges, not this home's: a surveyor or local agent who sees it will do better. Work done before 1997 is already in the price. Evidence: of 573,662 homes we saw extended on their energy certificates (median +30 m²), the 123,110 that sold before and after grew a median 10.9% more than their neighbourhood: about a third of the extra space at the home's average price per m².

Questions to raise
Generated from the facts above, as prompts for your solicitor, surveyor or the agent. Not legal advice.
Article 4 directionSome work normally allowed without planning permission needs it here (Bury borough HMO). Check before planning extensions or conversions.
Energy rating FExpect higher bills and, if you plan to let it, work may be needed: rented homes must reach at least E today and the government plans C. The certificate says it could reach D.
Old energy certificateThe latest certificate we matched is from 2013; certificates last 10 years. The seller needs a current one, and it may differ.
Older home (built 1900-1929)Consider a full building survey (RICS Level 3) rather than a basic one: older homes more often have damp, roof, wiring, drainage or structural movement issues, and past alterations may predate building regulations.
Estimate is far from the last saleA lot has changed since it last sold, or the home has been extended or renovated. Rely on comparable recent sales and the survey.
For every purchaseCommission a survey suited to the home's age and condition, check the title plan matches what you see on the ground (boundaries, access, parking), and ask about disputes with neighbours, rights of way and shared drives.
