5 THE PINES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 THE PINES sales from October 2013 and July 2022 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 2013 sale was for 60% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 60% above the HPI over time, until the July 2022 sale, where it falls to 45% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 45% above the HPI.

What might 5 THE PINES be worth now?

5 THE PINES might now be worth an estimated £376,807.

This is based on house price inflation of 9.2%, between July 2022 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 9.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 THE PINES of £345,000 on 22nd July 2022. For the value to have increased from £345,000 to £376,807 over the one year and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 THE PINES has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area.
• The July 2022 sale price of £345,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
