It’s no longer necessary to rely on the unreliable gossip of neighbours or the self-serving estimates of property agents to find out what individual property is sold for. It’s all recorded on the web. www.nethouseprices.com allows you to establish exactly what price a property and those in the surrounding area has achieved since April 2000.

International Mortgage Plans think the following sites will prove useful in your property search

	Nethouseprices This will let you know the sale price property has achieved in the area that you are looking to buy in. They will even give you the sale prices achieved in the road that you are interested in. These prices are the actual figure paid as registered by the UK land registry www.nethouseprices.com
