Why one average price is misleading

A main-road commercial plot, a 30-foot residential road and an interior street can have very different asking prices even within the same locality. Our price pages therefore separate property observations wherever enough detail exists.

Reported transactionVoluntarily reported completed priceShown only with sufficient evidence
Asking price is usually higher than the final negotiated sale price. Do not treat an advertised number as confirmed market value.

Factors that influence price per cent

  • Exact road and micro-location
  • Road width and legal access
  • Residential, commercial or agricultural use
  • Frontage, plot shape and corner position
  • Approval status and available documents
  • Distance from junctions, schools and hospitals
