    Hi,

    sorry for the confusion regarding the new functionality in the Nestoria API. The data we use is the listings in our database - which is asking price. You are correct that the Land Registry reports the actual sold price, but with a six month delay and not accessible via an API.

    give it a try and let us know what you think.

    thanks,
    Ed from Nestoria
