5 THE FIRS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Shropshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 THE FIRS sales between September 2005 and February 2021 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 October 2015 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the February 2021 sale, where it falls to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.

What might 5 THE FIRS be worth now?

5 THE FIRS might now be worth an estimated £294,738.

This is based on house price inflation of 20.3%, between February 2021 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Shropshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 20.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 THE FIRS of £245,000 on 26th February 2021. For the value to have increased from £245,000 to £294,738 over the four years to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 THE FIRS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Shropshire local authority area.
• The February 2021 sale price of £245,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 5 THE FIRS has not materially changed since February 2021.
