Can't find my property on the house price websites

[Deleted User]

I have recently moved house as a tenant and was looking at the council tax rebanding advice on this site. The recommended sites for looking up house sale prices (Nethouseprices, Houseprices and RightMove) don't have anything for my property. It's only a few years old and the other flats in the building all have sale records on those websites from around 2004 but mine is not to be found. Anyone else had this or know why?

Yes, I tried doing the same thing myself for my 90s built flat in an attempt to get the council tax downgraded from B to A. No sale details were available for mine.

Methinks that as my landlord is a Housing Association who bought a bulkload of the flats in mine and the neighbouring blocks from new, the details of these simply aren't published for some unfathomable reason. :huh:

If it was a sole landlord then I think the property sale details would have been available.

I believe sale details for auction sales and repossessions are never published. There are also others which just don't get published for some unknown reasons - being nosy I tried to find out how much a friend paid for a shoe box in London but none of her block appear on the listings, despite it being a) built in 2004 and b) bought by my friend in 2007 (i.e that fact it doesn't appear can't be down to the new-build status).
