Hi
We are about to list our house for sale, and were wanting to try find out how long previous for sale houses on our estate have taken to sell, is that something we can do and also if so how?
thanks so much

Try Zoopla which may give some idea. Also try Property Bee.

Double check you are on prices and rents tab

Type in the first half of postcode

Search

Click current asking prices and time on market link

It's the best you can do other than researching every property sold on your estate by googling addresses, you may find the sample size is too small to draw any reasonable conclusions from anything you manage to find.

Very interesting link, I had not encountered this before.

Without sounding smug, I know the prices in the area because I've been researching it for months if not years, mainly when looking for a new house. I suppose it depends if you want to live in the same area or not - if you want to move away you probably don't bother looking nearby!

I've got about 20 houses on Rightmove bookmarked that have sold and just compare the time on market with the sold price data from Land Registry and went from there.

Also get Property Bee if you aren't using it already.
