8 ARGUS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Birmingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 8 ARGUS CLOSE sales between August 1998 and April 2018 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 February 2016 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the April 2018 sale, where it rises to 7% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% above the HPI.

What might 8 ARGUS CLOSE be worth now?

8 ARGUS CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £286,879.

This is based on house price inflation of 36.6%, between April 2018 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Birmingham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 36.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 ARGUS CLOSE of £210,000 on 23rd April 2018. For the value to have increased from £210,000 to £286,879 over the five years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 ARGUS CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Birmingham local authority area.
• The April 2018 sale price of £210,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
