4 ENGINE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bromsgrove local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 ENGINE CLOSE sales from December 2015 and August 2018 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 2015 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the August 2018 sale, where it falls to roughly the same level as the HPI. The line then continues to track in line with the HPI.

What might 4 ENGINE CLOSE be worth now?

4 ENGINE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £523,422.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.2%, between August 2018 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Bromsgrove local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 21.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 ENGINE CLOSE of £432,000 on 31st August 2018. For the value to have increased from £432,000 to £523,422 over the seven years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 ENGINE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Bromsgrove local authority area.
• The August 2018 sale price of £432,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 4 ENGINE CLOSE has not materially changed since August 2018.
