How Much Did Your Neighbour Pay For Their House!

Advantages: Can Monitor Property Prices In An Area
Disadvantages: Could Be Considered An Invasion Of Privacy

I recently discovered this Website when a friend told me about it, and I couldn't resist having a look. This Website is located at http://www.houseprices.co.uk and it is completely free to access. Even better there is not even any need to register with the site so you can rest assured that after you have paid the site a visit that you won't be bombarded with junk mail. This Website works because of its sheer simplicity. It makes no boasts and to ...
...What this Website does have to offer however is a wealth of information relating to House Prices in the whole of the UK. In fact this site has information relating to the sale price of every House that has been sold in the UK since the 1st January 2000. This information has been gathered from the Land Registry, a Government Department that collates all information relating to Property Sales and Purchases. The Website is constantly updated, typically ...

Misleading about schools

Advantages: Nice layout
Disadvantages: Incomplete schools information

I did a search on my own postcode (MK17 9..) and the only secondary school listed was Cottesloe. A-level points per student 138.0. In this part of Buckinghamshire, we're lucky enough to still have LEA grammar schools. Our village lies just within the grammar schools catchment area and there's a free school bus from the village. This is where many of the children go. The three grammar schools they can go to in Aylesbury are not just some of the best ...
...e.g. A level points per student 443.0. These state grammar schools in Aylesbury do better than many independent schools and are often within the top 50 state schools in the country. I like the site layout very much, but I wouldn't rely on the schools information - I think they're searching by LEA and then which school is nearest - if that's the case then many areas within Buckinghamshire might not give me an accurate picture. I think most parents ...

A big flaw but we can forgive...

Advantages: Lots of useful information
Disadvantages: Not up to date enough

I've spent many hours searching through housing websites recently and fish4homes is definitely one of the most comprehensive and user friendly of the bunch. On the plus, there are more properties on here than you'll find anywhere else, and the site is easy to navigate and clearly set out. It is slightly slow in bringing up the search results but for the amount of properties it finds this can probably be forgiven! For the first time buyer especially ...
...look for, what to ask, who to ask etc as well mortgage, insurance and moving advice. Unfortunately it has one massive flaw in that is it far from up to date and many of the properties I was interested in had been sold weeks or even months ago. This is a problem with many of the websites but on fish it is much worse probably due to the sheer volume of properties. For anyone looking just to get an idea of house prices they should add at least few ...

Moving on?

Advantages: Very easy to use, good amount of responses, it's free!

...need to again. The moveflat.co.uk site is specifically for those in London, however at the top of the page is a drop down bar which allows you to see sites for the following places: Amsterdam, Barcelona, Berlin, Birmingham, Brighton, Bristol, Cambridge, Cardiff, Dublin, Edinburgh, Exeter, Glasgow, Leeds, Lisbon, Liverpool, Manchester, Melbourne, Milan, Newcastle, Nottingham, Oxford, Paris, Reading, Sheffield, Sydney - these sites are all under the ...
...the site I am reviewing now. I'm not too sure on the history of this site, and to be honest I'm not sure that it even matters - the point is the site is free, easy to use, and I had an amazing amount of interest in the room once I'd placed the advert (I had a phone call and an email from 2 different people within 5 minutes of placing the advert online!). It seems to be a guy called Julian that runs the website - there is a link on the homepage which ...
