The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Shropshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 72 COMET DRIVE sales between February 2004 and September 2014 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 2006 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the September 2014 sale, where it rises to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.
72 COMET DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £218,490.
This is based on house price inflation of 56.1%, between September 2014 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Shropshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 56.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 72 COMET DRIVE of £139,950 on 26th September 2014. For the value to have increased from £139,950 to £218,490 over the nine years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
