Why This Matters

Knowing the Sold Price Changes the Negotiation

The asking price on Rightmove or Zoopla tells you what a seller wants. The Land Registry sold price tells you what buyers actually paid - and those two figures can differ by tens of thousands of pounds. In the current market, knowing the full sold price history of a property is one of the most powerful tools available to a buyer.

A property that was bought for £280,000 in 2019 and is now asking £395,000 tells a very different story to one bought for £340,000 in the same year. Has the seller genuinely improved it? Is the local market that buoyant? Or is the asking price optimistic? Only the actual sold price data lets you answer those questions objectively.

Beyond the subject property, seeing what comparable homes on the same street or in the same postcode have actually exchanged for gives you a robust basis for your offer - and confidence in your mortgage lender's valuation.

What HouseDossier Analyses

More Than Just a Price - Full Market Context

Our sold house prices report goes beyond the raw Land Registry figure to give you complete market intelligence for the property and the surrounding area.

Full Sale Price History Since 1995

Every registered transaction for the specific property: sale date, price paid, property type, tenure, and whether it was a new-build or established property. Spot the patterns that reveal a motivated seller or a problematic history.

Price Trend Chart

Visual price trend showing how the property's value has moved over time, benchmarked against the postcode average and the wider local authority area. Identify whether this property has out- or underperformed its neighbours.

Comparable Sales (Comps)

What similar properties on the same street and in the same postcode sector have sold for in the past 24 months. The same methodology your mortgage lender's surveyor will use to validate their valuation.

Transaction Type Analysis

Whether each sale was freehold or leasehold, standard or new-build, and the buyer/seller category (private individual, company, housing association) - context that can explain anomalous prices.

How It Works

Instant Access to 30 Years of Price Data

01

Enter the property address

We match your search to the exact UPRN, ensuring you see only transactions for the specific property - not neighbours or similarly-named addresses nearby.

02

Live query of HM Land Registry

We query the Land Registry Price Paid API directly - no cached data. You receive the most recently published sold prices, typically updated within a few days of Land Registry processing new registrations.

03

Comparable sales and trend analysis added automatically

We run a second query for comparable properties within the same postcode sector, applying filters for property type and tenure to give you the most relevant market comparables.

FAQ

Sold House Prices - Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate is Land Registry sold price data?
HM Land Registry price paid data is extremely accurate - it records the legally declared sale price from the TR1 transfer document, as submitted during conveyancing. However, there are a few caveats: prices can occasionally include fixtures and fittings or other agreements outside the property itself, and new-build prices sometimes include incentives (cashback, furniture packages, mortgage subsidies) that inflate the headline figure. Lenders and surveyors are well aware of this and apply appropriate caution to new-build comparables.
How long does it take for a sale to appear on Land Registry?
Land Registry typically registers a completed sale within two to three months of completion, though backlogs can extend this. Sales completed in December to February often take longer due to the combined volume of year-end transactions. If you are researching a very recent sale, it may not yet appear in the Price Paid Data. Our report queries the live Land Registry API, so you always see the most recently published data.
Does the sold price include stamp duty and solicitor fees?
No. The Land Registry records only the agreed purchase price - the consideration stated in the transfer deed. Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT), solicitor fees, survey costs, and mortgage arrangement fees are paid separately by the buyer and do not appear in the sale price.
Can I see what my house would sell for today?
Our report provides a price trend analysis based on Land Registry historical data and recent local comparables. We show what similar properties (same type, size, and neighbourhood) have sold for in the past 12 months. This gives a strong indication of current market value, though only a RICS-accredited surveyor can provide a formal valuation.
Why does Land Registry sometimes show a much lower price than expected?
There are legitimate reasons a registered sale price can appear lower than market value: transfers between family members, Help to Buy shared equity purchases (where only the buyer's portion is recorded), shared ownership staircasing transactions, or properties sold under the Right to Buy scheme at a discount. Our report notes the transaction type, which helps you identify these situations.
Does the sold price data include Scotland and Northern Ireland?
No. HM Land Registry covers England and Wales only. Scotland has its own Registers of Scotland (which publishes sale prices through ESPC and Rightmove but not through a free API in the same way). Northern Ireland uses the Land & Property Services. Our report currently covers England and Wales.
