MOUNTFIELD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Staffordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three MOUNTFIELD sales between September 1999 and March 2018 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 2001 sale was for 94% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 94% above the HPI over time, until the March 2018 sale, where it falls to 85% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 85% above the HPI.

What might MOUNTFIELD be worth now?

MOUNTFIELD might now be worth an estimated £830,773.

This is based on house price inflation of 39.6%, between March 2018 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the South Staffordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 39.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MOUNTFIELD of £595,000 on 13th March 2018. For the value to have increased from £595,000 to £830,773 over the five years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MOUNTFIELD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the South Staffordshire local authority area.
• The March 2018 sale price of £595,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MOUNTFIELD has not materially changed since March 2018.
