3 CROFTERS LEA Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 3 CROFTERS LEA sales between June 1998 and October 2020 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 2013 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the October 2020 sale, where it falls to 32% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% below the HPI.

What might 3 CROFTERS LEA be worth now?

3 CROFTERS LEA might now be worth an estimated £291,572.

This is based on house price inflation of 24.1%, between October 2020 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 24.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 CROFTERS LEA of £235,000 on 12th October 2020. For the value to have increased from £235,000 to £291,572 over the three years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 CROFTERS LEA has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area.
• The October 2020 sale price of £235,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
