19 MEREWOOD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Lancashire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 19 MEREWOOD sales between September 1995 and July 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 February 2001 sale was for 22% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% below the HPI over time, until the July 2017 sale, where it falls to 36% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% below the HPI.

What might 19 MEREWOOD be worth now?

19 MEREWOOD might now be worth an estimated £235,037.

This is based on house price inflation of 34.3%, between July 2017 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the West Lancashire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 34.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 19 MEREWOOD of £175,000 on 13th July 2017. For the value to have increased from £175,000 to £235,037 over the six years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 19 MEREWOOD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Lancashire local authority area.
• The July 2017 sale price of £175,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 19 MEREWOOD has not materially changed since July 2017.
