18 WALNUT CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Dudley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 18 WALNUT CLOSE sales between May 2000 and May 2017 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 2003 sale was for 26% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% above the HPI over time, until the May 2017 sale, where it falls to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.

What might 18 WALNUT CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 54.6%, between May 2017 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Dudley local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 54.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 WALNUT CLOSE of £145,000 on 19th May 2017. For the value to have increased from £145,000 to £224,133 over the six years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 18 WALNUT CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Dudley local authority area.
• The May 2017 sale price of £145,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
