BIRCH HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Leeds local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BIRCH HOUSE sales from August 2005 and February 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 2005 sale was for 227% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 227% above the HPI over time, until the February 2019 sale, where it falls to 187% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 187% above the HPI.

What might BIRCH HOUSE be worth now?

BIRCH HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £1,287,122.

This is based on house price inflation of 35.5%, between February 2019 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Leeds local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 35.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BIRCH HOUSE of £950,000 on 8th February 2019. For the value to have increased from £950,000 to £1,287,122 over the six years to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BIRCH HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Leeds local authority area.
• The February 2019 sale price of £950,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BIRCH HOUSE has not materially changed since February 2019.
