20 LESSCROFT CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wolverhampton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 20 LESSCROFT CLOSE sales between September 2000 and August 2023 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 June 2018 sale was for 4% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% below the HPI over time, until the August 2023 sale, where it rises to 1% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% below the HPI.

What might 20 LESSCROFT CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 9.9%, between August 2023 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Wolverhampton local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 9.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 20 LESSCROFT CLOSE of £200,000 on 25th August 2023. For the value to have increased from £200,000 to £219,746 over the two years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
