17 NEEDHILL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Solihull local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 17 NEEDHILL CLOSE sales between August 2011 and January 2019 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 November 2016 sale was for 34% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% above the HPI over time, until the January 2019 sale, where it falls to 28% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% above the HPI.

What might 17 NEEDHILL CLOSE be worth now?

17 NEEDHILL CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £439,806.

This is based on house price inflation of 26.4%, between January 2019 and February 2025, for semi-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 26.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 NEEDHILL CLOSE of £348,000 on 16th January 2019. For the value to have increased from £348,000 to £439,806 over the five years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
