8 EARHART CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the West Lancashire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 8 EARHART CLOSE sales between March 2005 and July 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 April 2009 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the July 2014 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.

What might 8 EARHART CLOSE be worth now?

8 EARHART CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £168,180.

This is based on house price inflation of 55.7%, between July 2014 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the West Lancashire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 55.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 EARHART CLOSE of £108,000 on 18th July 2014. For the value to have increased from £108,000 to £168,180 over the nine years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 EARHART CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the West Lancashire local authority area.
