Hi I recently found out I could have been in the wrong council tax band, I decided to have a look into thinking it would be right, it seems it's wrong.
However proving it seems to be a challenge.
How do I go about finding local house price data from 1991?
My house is currently in Band C as are all the houses around me. However in 1995 my house was sold for £46000, well within Band B.
I've phoned the VOA and been told that's not enough that the sold prices need to be within 1991-1993, as land registry prices only start from 1995 this is going to be pretty hard to find!
I've searched rightmove for similar houses to my own and their prices within a 3 mile radius, there aren't many sold in 1995, but the majority are the same and within the £52,000 Band B threshold.
