The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Rossendale local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 38 MERCER CRESCENT sales from December 2017 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 December 2017 sale was for 26% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% above the HPI over time, until the June 2022 sale, where it rises to 46% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% above the HPI.
38 MERCER CRESCENT might now be worth an estimated £291,194.
This is based on house price inflation of 9.9%, between June 2022 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Rossendale local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 9.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 38 MERCER CRESCENT of £265,000 on 8th June 2022. For the value to have increased from £265,000 to £291,194 over the one year and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
