Looking for advice, please. I am buying property in the UK for the first time in almost 25 years, looking for something for my daughter who requires some adjustments for a physical disability. I have viewed a great option which is a complete do-upper (it hasn't been touched since 1955) in the exact right location, which has already received an offer at asking price after 1 day on the market.

I would like to find out what flats in the same development of the same size but better condition have actually gone for recently; and thus whether the asking price "discounted" for much needed work etc is justified.

It is quite a big development, of flats all the same size, with relatively high turnover. Is there an online source of this information which others would recommend, please?

TIA

Sold prices on Rightmove.

Rightmove will show you that info

ClematisBlue49 · 29/08/2023 19:41

As does Rightmove.

Rightmove, but I think it is only on the website and not on the app.

You can search by area, street or postcode.

Houseprices.io is often quicker than Rightmove.

Then you can look the last advert up on Zoopla to see the condition.

Land registry only release about 8,000 sold prices each month. Then it takes them about nine months to catch up inputting everything sold that month.

So if you see something on house price.io that is very recent, it will have been fed through from that small release of data.

I.e., it will not be the full, up to data picture on recent sales for quite a long time.

That`s right, PropertyLog gives a more immediate guide to the state of the market IMO.

If a property hasn’t been refurbished since 1955 - 68 years ago - then it will definitely be the case that everything will need doing to it and I would be budgeting at least £150k for the works as an absolute minimum.
