24 NEEDHAM CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Halton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 24 NEEDHAM CLOSE sales between January 2003 and October 2022 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 July 2007 sale was for 9% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% below the HPI over time, until the October 2022 sale, where it falls to 21% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% below the HPI.

What might 24 NEEDHAM CLOSE be worth now?

24 NEEDHAM CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £152,521.

This is based on house price inflation of 5.2%, between October 2022 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Halton local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 5.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 24 NEEDHAM CLOSE of £145,000 on 12th October 2022. For the value to have increased from £145,000 to £152,521 over the one year and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
