16 SUMMER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Halton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 16 SUMMER CLOSE sales from December 1999 and September 2015 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 1999 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the September 2015 sale, where it rises to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.

What might 16 SUMMER CLOSE be worth now?

16 SUMMER CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £158,574.

This is based on house price inflation of 61.8%, between September 2015 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Halton local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 61.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 SUMMER CLOSE of £98,000 on 1st September 2015. For the value to have increased from £98,000 to £158,574 over the eight years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 16 SUMMER CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Halton local authority area.
• The September 2015 sale price of £98,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
