What's it worth with your changes?
Sale records can't see extensions, conversions or condition. Tell us what's changed since 2017 and we'll adjust the estimate, with a range that shows how sure we can be.

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 2017 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.
Older home (built before 1900)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.
Development planned nearbyThe council's brownfield register lists 1 site of 50+ homes in this neighbourhood (largest: The Grove Tavern, 520 Lordship Lane, 79 homes). Look up planning applications for anything near you.
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.
