    What are the recent sale prices of comparable local properties?

    Our neighbors house (same floorplan, garden size, and same allocated parking space) sold for £255k a year ago. Another property that was slightly worse then ours sold for £245k, and one that was slightly better sold for £265k (both these were within the last 2 months).

    I think we are seeing sept sales on land reg have those 2 recent ones hit yet?

    What are other 1 bed places going for?
    What does the SSTC tell you about the market.

    I can’t help you, but for future reference it was probably a mistake spending £15k on the kitchen. That’s purely from a financial point of view, as you may love the new kitchen and have enjoyed using it for 8 months. Nevertheless, you might well have a queue of competing buyers if you were offering the property with the old kitchen for £15k less.
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?
