1 HANSBY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Lancashire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 1 HANSBY CLOSE sales between April 2002 and November 2018 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 June 2005 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the November 2018 sale, where it falls to 35% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% below the HPI.

What might 1 HANSBY CLOSE be worth now?

1 HANSBY CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £239,571.

This is based on house price inflation of 29.5%, between November 2018 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the West Lancashire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 29.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 HANSBY CLOSE of £185,000 on 19th November 2018. For the value to have increased from £185,000 to £239,571 over the five years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 HANSBY CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Lancashire local authority area.
