6 SWALLOW CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cannock Chase local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 6 SWALLOW CLOSE sales between February 1999 and June 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 December 2015 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the June 2022 sale, where it falls to 35% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% below the HPI.

What might 6 SWALLOW CLOSE be worth now?

6 SWALLOW CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £215,397.

This is based on house price inflation of 5.1%, between June 2022 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Cannock Chase local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 5.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 6 SWALLOW CLOSE of £205,000 on 17th June 2022. For the value to have increased from £205,000 to £215,397 over the one year and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 6 SWALLOW CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cannock Chase local authority area.
• The June 2022 sale price of £205,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 6 SWALLOW CLOSE has not materially changed since June 2022.
