8 LENCH CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Redditch local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 LENCH CLOSE sales from October 2001 and May 2009 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 October 2001 sale was for 43% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% above the HPI over time, until the May 2009 sale, where it falls to 22% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% above the HPI.

What might 8 LENCH CLOSE be worth now?

8 LENCH CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £296,892.

This is based on house price inflation of 91.5%, between May 2009 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Redditch local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 91.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 LENCH CLOSE of £155,000 on 1st May 2009. For the value to have increased from £155,000 to £296,892 over the sixteen years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 LENCH CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Redditch local authority area.
• The May 2009 sale price of £155,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
