The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Birmingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 ALSTON CLOSE sales from November 2018 and May 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 November 2018 sale was for 163% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 163% above the HPI over time, until the May 2023 sale, where it rises to 282% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 282% above the HPI.
8 ALSTON CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £1,656,499.
