17 FIRBARN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Birmingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 17 FIRBARN CLOSE sales between February 2003 and July 2013 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 September 2011 sale was for 43% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% above the HPI over time, until the July 2013 sale, where it rises to 49% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% above the HPI.

What might 17 FIRBARN CLOSE be worth now?

17 FIRBARN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £400,922.

This is based on house price inflation of 85.6%, between July 2013 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Birmingham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 85.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 FIRBARN CLOSE of £216,000 on 26th July 2013. For the value to have increased from £216,000 to £400,922 over the twelve years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
