Before you buy in EC1A

What to check on any EC1A property

Flood risk

The Environment Agency maps flood risk at address level — river, sea and surface-water sources are all assessed. Properties in City of London can vary significantly from one street to the next, so the only reliable check is for the specific address.

EPC energy rating

The EPC register holds energy performance certificates for most homes in England and Wales. A low EPC rating means higher energy bills — checking it before you offer lets you factor running costs into your budget.

Planning applications

Nearby planning applications can change a view, add traffic or bring new development. A report surfaces applications within a set radius of the EC1A address from the last two years.

Sold price history

Land Registry records every residential sale in England and Wales. Checking the sold-price history for a EC1A property tells you what it last sold for and whether the current asking price is in line with the local market.
