MURLY MOSS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Calderdale local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three MURLY MOSS sales between September 1999 and June 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 March 2007 sale was for 195% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 195% above the HPI over time, until the June 2017 sale, where it falls to 151% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 151% above the HPI.

What might MURLY MOSS be worth now?

MURLY MOSS might now be worth an estimated £878,960.

This is based on house price inflation of 41.8%, between June 2017 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Calderdale local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 41.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MURLY MOSS of £620,000 on 30th June 2017. For the value to have increased from £620,000 to £878,960 over the eight years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MURLY MOSS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Calderdale local authority area.
• The June 2017 sale price of £620,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MURLY MOSS has not materially changed since June 2017.
