5 PORTER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Helens local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 PORTER CLOSE sales between January 2001 and June 2011 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 May 2004 sale was for 7% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% above the HPI over time, until the June 2011 sale, where it falls to 6% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% above the HPI.

What might 5 PORTER CLOSE be worth now?

5 PORTER CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £307,551.

This is based on house price inflation of 75.7%, between June 2011 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the St Helens local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 75.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 PORTER CLOSE of £175,000 on 10th June 2011. For the value to have increased from £175,000 to £307,551 over the fourteen years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 PORTER CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the St Helens local authority area.
• The June 2011 sale price of £175,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
