Valuation
The most recent sale price indexed forward to today's value is £307,792. This is one data point to inform the valuation. Another method is the valuation implied by what comparable homes are selling for. Homes in Romford are now selling for between £4,730 and £6,390 per square metre (£439 and £593 per square foot). Based on an internal area of 51 m², this implies a valuation between £241,000 and £326,000. Treat this as context only.
