From Cara’s valuation model, trained on every home sold on Daft since January 2025: the house, its asking price, and what the homes nearest to it sold for. On recent sales it hadn’t seen, it was typically within 5% of the final price, and about 8 in 10 sold inside its range. Nearby, 5 of 6 houses that sold in the last 18 months went over asking, by a median of +3.7%.
