2 EARHART CLOSE 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 2 EARHART CLOSE sales between May 2005 and July 2015 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 May 2009 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the July 2015 sale, where it falls to 35% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% below the HPI.

What might 2 EARHART CLOSE be worth now?

2 EARHART CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £240,905.

This is based on house price inflation of 49.6%, between July 2015 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 49.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 EARHART CLOSE of £161,000 on 10th July 2015. For the value to have increased from £161,000 to £240,905 over the eight years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 EARHART CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Lancashire local authority area.
• The July 2015 sale price of £161,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 2 EARHART CLOSE has not materially changed since July 2015.
