12 LONGHIRST GARDENS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Shropshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 12 LONGHIRST GARDENS sales from December 1997 and August 2006 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 1997 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the August 2006 sale, where it falls to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.

What might 12 LONGHIRST GARDENS be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 55.5%, between August 2006 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Shropshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 55.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 12 LONGHIRST GARDENS of £238,000 on 25th August 2006. For the value to have increased from £238,000 to £370,034 over the seventeen years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
