HELP!!Finding house prices from 1996/97

[Schlomo78]

Hi, I wonder if anyone can tell me how I can find out how much houses sold for in a precise road in 96/97 as my partners ex wife has specified that the prices went up in that area by a specific amount whereas I can only find average house prices for the area...........any help greatly appreciated as she only lived there for a year and wants a lot of money!!!!!
Cheers

Yes if you go here

Enter the address and town or the postcode and you can check on a house that is sold and what it sold for !

Thanks almcd007 for your quick response but it only goes back to 2000 which is the problem I am having, a lot of databases don't go back as far as 96/97. *sighs*
Thanks again!! :)

Go here:
http://www.landregistry.co.uk/houseprices/

Under 'individual property information', enter the postcode.

Clicking 'Go' will bring up a list of all properties with that postcode. Look for the relevant address.

Next to 'Price Paid Data', you'll see 'Yes' or 'No'. (I would expect this to be 'Yes' because the Land Registry started recording price data on 01/01/95).

Assuming that you see 'Yes', click on 'Information available'.

Then purchase the title register. It'll cost you �3 but, if it'll save you thousands of pounds, that seems like a good investment to me ;-)

Hi, I looked at that and it said there was no relevant information, so I ended up just ringing an estate agent in the area and asking them!! THey gave me the price of houses sold in that street in97 and the houses actually made more profit than she is asking for so I guess we will just give her what she is asking for and consider ourselves lucky!!
Thanks a million for your help anyway!!
