27 THORN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cannock Chase local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 27 THORN CLOSE sales between December 1996 and October 2005 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 2002 sale was for 4% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% above the HPI over time, until the October 2005 sale, where it falls to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.

What might 27 THORN CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 74%, between October 2005 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Cannock Chase local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 74% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 27 THORN CLOSE of £194,995 on 28th October 2005. For the value to have increased from £194,995 to £339,296 over the eighteen years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
