4 MERTON ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Stockport local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 4 MERTON ROAD sales between April 1996 and May 2014 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 2002 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the May 2014 sale, where it rises to 19% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% below the HPI.

What might 4 MERTON ROAD be worth now?

4 MERTON ROAD might now be worth an estimated £270,637.

This is based on house price inflation of 83.5%, between May 2014 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Stockport local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 83.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 MERTON ROAD of £147,500 on 27th May 2014. For the value to have increased from £147,500 to £270,637 over the nine years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 MERTON ROAD has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Stockport local authority area.
• The May 2014 sale price of £147,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
