55 BRACKEN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Lichfield local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 55 BRACKEN CLOSE sales between July 2009 and July 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 April 2015 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the July 2021 sale, where it rises to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.

What might 55 BRACKEN CLOSE be worth now?

55 BRACKEN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £310,859.

This is based on house price inflation of 24.3%, between July 2021 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Lichfield local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 24.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 55 BRACKEN CLOSE of £249,995 on 21st July 2021. For the value to have increased from £249,995 to £310,859 over the two years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
