How the premium is worked out

Resale homes of the same type, with a bedroom count within one and a floor area close to this home’s, sold near it: HM Land Registry sales with their energy certificate’s floor area, never new-build sales.
Each sale moved to today’s prices with HomePortfolio’s repeat-sales index, built from homes HM Land Registry records selling more than once.
The middle half of those prices, per square metre where the floor area is known, is the band a similar resale home would sell in.
The asking price against that band is the premium, and after the builder’s cash offers too, with a confidence set by how many sales match, how alike and how recent.
Each month the method values thousands of resales whose price is already known, and the limits each confidence keeps to come from the error it measurably makes. Too few sales, too spread or too old, and there is no figure: the engine says why.

Refused

A 1 bedroom home at Hathern Edge

No estimate. The engine refused, and says why:

Only 2 matched resale sales within 3 km, fewer than the 5 the method needs
7 of the sales state no bedroom count, which HM Land Registry Price Paid Data alone never does, and the method matches on bedrooms, so these sales need bedrooms from an attributed source before they can count
Of 1,955 sales considered, set aside: 212 new-build, 305 category B, 1,362 another property type, 7 stating no bedroom count, 1 more than 1 bedroom from the home, 40 in a month the price index does not cover, 26 beyond 3 km

Method: measured on 3,351 resales from 2025-08-01 to 2026-07-31.
