1 CROSS GATES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Halton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 1 CROSS GATES sales between September 1999 and June 2014 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the December 1999 sale was for 66% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 66% above the HPI over time, until the June 2014 sale, where it falls to 46% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% above the HPI.

What might 1 CROSS GATES be worth now?

1 CROSS GATES might now be worth an estimated £448,366.

This is based on house price inflation of 65.4%, between June 2014 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Halton local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 65.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 CROSS GATES of £271,000 on 26th June 2014. For the value to have increased from £271,000 to £448,366 over the nine years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 CROSS GATES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Halton local authority area.
• The June 2014 sale price of £271,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1 CROSS GATES has not materially changed since June 2014.
