2 MERTON ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Stockport local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 2 MERTON ROAD sales between December 1999 and September 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 March 2005 sale was for 48% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 48% below the HPI over time, until the September 2017 sale, where it rises to 41% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% below the HPI.

What might 2 MERTON ROAD be worth now?

2 MERTON ROAD might now be worth an estimated £315,918.

This is based on house price inflation of 43.6%, between September 2017 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Stockport local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 43.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 MERTON ROAD of £219,950 on 15th September 2017. For the value to have increased from £219,950 to £315,918 over the six years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
