8 SCARTH PARK Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Lancashire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 SCARTH PARK sales between October 1998 and January 2019 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 August 2011 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the January 2019 sale, where it rises to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.

What might 8 SCARTH PARK be worth now?

8 SCARTH PARK might now be worth an estimated £261,976.

This is based on house price inflation of 31%, between January 2019 and December 2024, for 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 31% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 SCARTH PARK of £200,000 on 18th January 2019. For the value to have increased from £200,000 to £261,976 over the four years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 SCARTH PARK has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Lancashire local authority area.
• The January 2019 sale price of £200,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 8 SCARTH PARK has not materially changed since January 2019.
