7 MERTYN LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Flintshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 7 MERTYN LANE sales between June 2005 and July 2023 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 2019 sale was for 41% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 41% below the HPI over time, until the July 2023 sale, where it falls to 46% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% below the HPI.

What might 7 MERTYN LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 5.6%, between July 2023 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Flintshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 5.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 MERTYN LANE of £160,000 on 31st July 2023. For the value to have increased from £160,000 to £168,964 over the two years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 7 MERTYN LANE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Flintshire local authority area.
• The July 2023 sale price of £160,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
