4 COWLEY DRIVE 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 4 COWLEY DRIVE sales from April 1998 and August 2019 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 April 1998 sale was for 9% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% above the HPI over time, until the August 2019 sale, where it falls to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.

What might 4 COWLEY DRIVE be worth now?

4 COWLEY DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £244,165.

This is based on house price inflation of 29.5%, between August 2019 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 29.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 COWLEY DRIVE of £188,500 on 23rd August 2019. For the value to have increased from £188,500 to £244,165 over the six years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The August 2019 sale price of £188,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
