65 LIGHTWOODS HILL Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Sandwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 65 LIGHTWOODS HILL sales from August 2003 and April 2017 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 August 2003 sale was for 174% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 174% above the HPI over time, until the April 2017 sale, where it falls to 119% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 119% above the HPI.

What might 65 LIGHTWOODS HILL be worth now?

65 LIGHTWOODS HILL might now be worth an estimated £476,723.

This is based on house price inflation of 60.5%, between April 2017 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Sandwell local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 60.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 65 LIGHTWOODS HILL of £297,000 on 21st April 2017. For the value to have increased from £297,000 to £476,723 over the eight years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
