159 SCHOOL ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Solihull local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 159 SCHOOL ROAD sales between May 1996 and November 2003 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 2001 sale was for 79% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 79% above the HPI over time, until the November 2003 sale, where it falls to 69% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 69% above the HPI.

What might 159 SCHOOL ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 103.4%, between November 2003 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Solihull local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 103.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 159 SCHOOL ROAD of £485,000 on 25th November 2003. For the value to have increased from £485,000 to £986,378 over the 22 years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
