16 WORDSWORTH CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Lichfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 16 WORDSWORTH CLOSE sales between July 2000 and March 2022 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 2017 sale was for 44% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% below the HPI over time, until the March 2022 sale, where it rises to 40% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% below the HPI.

What might 16 WORDSWORTH CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 12.5%, between March 2022 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Lichfield local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 12.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 WORDSWORTH CLOSE of £269,950 on 21st March 2022. For the value to have increased from £269,950 to £303,734 over the three years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
