17 PORTER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the St Helens local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 17 PORTER CLOSE sales between August 2000 and September 2014 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 August 2001 sale was for 74% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 74% above the HPI over time, until the September 2014 sale, where it falls to 51% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 51% above the HPI.

What might 17 PORTER CLOSE be worth now?

The 72.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 PORTER CLOSE of £164,000 on 11th September 2014. For the value to have increased from £164,000 to £283,586 over the eleven years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
