20 ROWAN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Lichfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 20 ROWAN CLOSE sales between April 1996 and March 2006 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 2004 sale was for 9% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% below the HPI over time, until the March 2006 sale, where it rises to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.

What might 20 ROWAN CLOSE be worth now?

20 ROWAN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £290,826.

This is based on house price inflation of 84.1%, between March 2006 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Lichfield local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 84.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 20 ROWAN CLOSE of £158,000 on 6th March 2006. For the value to have increased from £158,000 to £290,826 over the nineteen years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 20 ROWAN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Lichfield local authority area.
• The March 2006 sale price of £158,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
