2 FIRSWOOD ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the West Lancashire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 2 FIRSWOOD ROAD sales between October 2010 and April 2019 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 March 2017 sale was for 12% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% above the HPI over time, until the April 2019 sale, where it falls to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.

What might 2 FIRSWOOD ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 33.7%, between April 2019 and February 2025, for semi-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 33.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 FIRSWOOD ROAD of £185,500 on 12th April 2019. For the value to have increased from £185,500 to £248,044 over the six years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 FIRSWOOD ROAD has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the West Lancashire local authority area.
• The April 2019 sale price of £185,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
