Compare two areas — your questions
How do I compare house prices between two areas?
Choose any two areas above. We show the median sold price, price per square metre and growth for each, side by side — all from HM Land Registry records.
What is price per square metre (£/m²) and why does it matter?
It divides the sold price by the home’s floor area (from EPC records), so you compare like for like rather than being fooled by headline prices.
Where does the comparison data come from?
Median prices come from HM Land Registry Price Paid Data; floor areas for £/m² come from Energy Performance Certificates.
