17 RALSTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Walsall local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 17 RALSTON CLOSE sales from June 1997 and July 2005 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 June 1997 sale was for 39% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% above the HPI over time, until the July 2005 sale, where it falls to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.

What might 17 RALSTON CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 72%, between July 2005 and March 2025, for detached houses, in the Walsall local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 72% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 RALSTON CLOSE of £228,000 on 8th July 2005. For the value to have increased from £228,000 to £392,170 over the twenty years and four months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
