Start with the detail behind the number.
These notes explain how to read evidence around one decision. They do not replace an assessment of a specific property.
When is a golf view worth more?
The outlook matters alongside privacy, sunlight, the individual home and how many buyers value that exact position.
Read the noteAsking price versus sold price
An asking price shows an owner’s position. A registered sale shows one completed agreement. Neither is a valuation by itself.
Read the noteReading standard
Know what the observation rests on.
A current note should make its evidence inspectable rather than asking you to trust a headline.
Date and period
The publication date and the period being discussed should be distinct, so older transactions are not presented as today’s market.
Source and sample
Registered sales, current asking stock and direct observations answer different questions. The source and number of records should be stated when data is used.
Limitations
Missing condition, plot, view or occupancy can weaken a comparison. Small samples should be described as small samples.
Practical meaning
The final question is what the evidence changes for a buyer or owner: shortlist, inspection, price, timing or the next conversation.
