22 FIRS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bromsgrove local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 22 FIRS CLOSE sales between November 2007 and September 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 October 2010 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the September 2019 sale, where it rises to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.

What might 22 FIRS CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 19.6%, between September 2019 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Bromsgrove local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 19.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 22 FIRS CLOSE of £385,000 on 20th September 2019. For the value to have increased from £385,000 to £460,452 over the six years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
