Valuation
The most recent sale price indexed forward to today's value is £211,952. This is one data point to inform the valuation. Another method is the valuation implied by what comparable homes are selling for. Homes in Smethwick are now selling for between £1,750 and £2,440 per square metre (£162 and £226 per square foot). Based on an internal area of 84 m², this implies a valuation between £147,000 and £205,000. Treat this as context only.
