5 SPENSER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Halton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 SPENSER CLOSE sales from April 1996 and March 2015 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 1996 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the March 2015 sale, where it falls to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.

What might 5 SPENSER CLOSE be worth now?

The 62.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 SPENSER CLOSE of £175,000 on 20th March 2015. For the value to have increased from £175,000 to £285,146 over the ten years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
