278 SHIRLEY ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Birmingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 278 SHIRLEY ROAD sales from June 2008 and October 2013 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 June 2008 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the October 2013 sale, where it rises to 9% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% above the HPI.

What might 278 SHIRLEY ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 81.6%, between October 2013 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Birmingham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 81.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 278 SHIRLEY ROAD of £162,000 on 25th October 2013. For the value to have increased from £162,000 to £294,149 over the twelve years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
