20 THE CROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Solihull local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 20 THE CROFT sales from January 1998 and June 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 January 1998 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the June 2023 sale, where it falls to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.

What might 20 THE CROFT be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 1.4%, between June 2023 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Solihull local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 20 THE CROFT of £499,950 on 1st June 2023. For the value to have increased from £499,950 to £507,021 over the six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
