How to check house prices

HM Land Registry Price Paid Data publishes recorded sales in England and Wales from 1995. It has transaction exclusions, registration delays and later corrections. It is not a complete current history of every property.

Use the sold-prices pages to explore published sale price, date, property type and tenure at the time of the transaction. Match the street, house number and flat or unit before relying on a record; historic tenure is not confirmation of the current title.

Available sale records and area trends can help you prepare questions about price. Different homes can have different size, tenure and condition. The paid report adds available property and area context; it does not promise a comparable-sales valuation range or assess the condition of the building.

Check the source and date

HM Land Registry explains Price Paid Data coverage and delays. For published regional averages and changes, use the dated UK House Price Index releases.

Our area estimate tool explains its method and available sale sample. Its range is not a valuation of an individual home.

What affects house prices

Topics to research when comparing homes. These links include guides and separate tools; they are not guaranteed report deliverables.

Location

Proximity to city centres, transport links, and amenities remains the single biggest driver of house prices.

Schools

Research school admissions and current inspection information directly with the school and relevant authority.

Transport

Walking distance to a railway station or Tube stop significantly affects property values, especially in commuter areas.

Crime

Lower crime areas correlate with higher property values. Street-level crime data can reveal hidden risks.

Flood Risk

Flood risk can reduce a property's value and affects insurance premiums and mortgage availability. Check the official flood-risk data for any postcode.

EPC Rating

Read the matching energy certificate and its date. Its estimates do not establish present condition or an individual property value.

Planning

Check proposed development with the local planning authority. A designation screen is not a complete nearby-application search.

Supply & Demand

Local housing stock, new build rates, and population growth all influence the balance of supply and demand.

Frequently asked questions

Recorded sales can help you research the local market, but different homes have different size, condition and tenure. HouseCheckup's paid report supplies available sale-record context; it does not provide a formal valuation or guarantee a comparable-sales value range. Discuss an individual valuation with an appropriate property professional.
The sale-record source is HM Land Registry Price Paid Data for England and Wales. It has coverage exclusions and publication delays, so it is not a complete current sale history for every property. Floor-area comparisons require a suitable certificate match and do not establish that two homes are comparable.
Check the method, underlying records, dates and address matches. An area estimate cannot inspect the property's condition or establish its individual market value. The HouseCheckup paid report does not promise a valuation range.
Use the latest published UK House Price Index release and check its reference month and geography. A national or regional average does not establish the value of an individual property.
Use our sold-prices pages or the official Price Paid Data service to research published sales in England and Wales. Match the address and unit carefully. The dataset starts in 1995, but excludes some transactions and recent records may be missing.
Price Paid Data is published monthly. Registration delays vary and recent months are incomplete. Check the source date and allow for later corrections.
