SHENLEA Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dudley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three SHENLEA sales between December 2011 and November 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 March 2016 sale was for 134% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 134% above the HPI over time, until the November 2018 sale, where it falls to 114% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 114% above the HPI.

What might SHENLEA be worth now?

SHENLEA might now be worth an estimated £741,123.

This is based on house price inflation of 34.7%, between November 2018 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Dudley local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 34.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SHENLEA of £550,000 on 19th November 2018. For the value to have increased from £550,000 to £741,123 over the five years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SHENLEA has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dudley local authority area.
• The November 2018 sale price of £550,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of SHENLEA has not materially changed since November 2018.
