15 BIRCHCROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Staffordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 15 BIRCHCROFT sales between May 1997 and April 2004 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 November 2001 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the April 2004 sale, which was also at 8% below the HPI.

What might 15 BIRCHCROFT be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 102.6%, between April 2004 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the South Staffordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 102.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 15 BIRCHCROFT of £195,000 on 30th April 2004. For the value to have increased from £195,000 to £395,143 over the 21 years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The April 2004 sale price of £195,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
