18 OSPREY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Lichfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 18 OSPREY CLOSE sales between October 1995 and February 2010 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 April 2006 sale was for 15% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% above the HPI over time, until the February 2010 sale, where it rises to 28% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% above the HPI.

What might 18 OSPREY CLOSE be worth now?

The 81.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 OSPREY CLOSE of £215,000 on 26th February 2010. For the value to have increased from £215,000 to £390,671 over the fifteen years to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
