88 DARK LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bromsgrove local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 88 DARK LANE sales from February 2002 and December 2016 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 2002 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the December 2016 sale, where it rises to 4% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% above the HPI.

What might 88 DARK LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 37.4%, between December 2016 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Bromsgrove local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 37.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 88 DARK LANE of £395,000 on 22nd December 2016. For the value to have increased from £395,000 to £542,714 over the nine years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
