16 STAR CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sandwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 16 STAR CLOSE sales between October 1997 and September 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 March 2004 sale was for 42% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 42% below the HPI over time, until the September 2006 sale, where it rises to 41% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% below the HPI.

What might 16 STAR CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 79.5%, between September 2006 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Sandwell local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 79.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 STAR CLOSE of £104,425 on 29th September 2006. For the value to have increased from £104,425 to £187,410 over the nineteen years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
