The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Birmingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 26 SCARECROW LANE sales between March 2002 and June 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 August 2006 sale was for 18% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% above the HPI over time, until the June 2022 sale, where it rises to 45% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 45% above the HPI.
26 SCARECROW LANE might now be worth an estimated £390,139.
