Estimates are based on national averages. Energy uses the Q4 2026 Ofgem energy price cap for Great Britain (1 October to 31 December 2026, reviewed quarterly) applied to typical medium-household usage, then scaled for the EPC rating and number of bedrooms you select and, on a property page, for the property type given on the listing (Domovita's own assumptions, the same ones the energy estimator uses). Where a listing gives no EPC rating, the rating shown is an assumption, and the page says so. Council tax uses the 2026/27 England average Band D (gov.uk / MHCLG) spread across bands by the statutory ratios; water uses the 2026/27 national average combined bill for England and Wales (Water UK). Broadband and insurance are fixed allowances set by Domovita, not measured averages. Ground rent and service charge, where shown, are taken from the listing as supplied, not an average. Monthly figures are the annual estimate divided by 12. Actual costs vary by location, usage, and provider. For guidance only. Last reviewed 2 October 2026.

Your property budget adds your deposit on top. For guidance only. Lenders assess affordability individually based on income, outgoings, credit history and other factors.
