Confidence ratings show how closely the estimate matches the comparable property data we currently have.
High confidence
There is a stronger pool of recent, relevant comparison data and the subject property lines up closely with those comparable properties.
Medium confidence
There is a reasonable amount of comparison data, but the closest matches may vary more in type, size, timing or location.

These figures are estimates and broad indications only. They are generated from recorded property attributes and available third-party market data, without a physical inspection of the property.
