12 AUSTIN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Birmingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 12 AUSTIN CLOSE sales between February 1996 and September 2024 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 April 2003 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the September 2024 sale, where it falls to 10% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% below the HPI.

What might 12 AUSTIN CLOSE be worth now?

12 AUSTIN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £243,489.

This is based on house price inflation of 1.5%, between September 2024 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Birmingham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 12 AUSTIN CLOSE of £240,000 on 20th September 2024. For the value to have increased from £240,000 to £243,489 over the one year and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 12 AUSTIN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Birmingham local authority area.
• The September 2024 sale price of £240,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
