MERRINGTON Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Lindsey local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three MERRINGTON sales between April 1999 and July 2017 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 July 2004 sale was for 41% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 41% above the HPI over time, until the July 2017 sale, where it falls to 40% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% above the HPI.

What might MERRINGTON be worth now?

MERRINGTON might now be worth an estimated £399,561.

This is based on house price inflation of 28.9%, between July 2017 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the West Lindsey local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 28.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MERRINGTON of £310,000 on 7th July 2017. For the value to have increased from £310,000 to £399,561 over the six years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MERRINGTON has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Lindsey local authority area.
• The July 2017 sale price of £310,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MERRINGTON has not materially changed since July 2017.
