SOUTHGATE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SOUTHGATE sales from January 2002 and May 2016 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 January 2002 sale was for 118% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 118% above the HPI over time, until the May 2016 sale, where it rises to 138% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 138% above the HPI.

What might SOUTHGATE be worth now?

SOUTHGATE might now be worth an estimated £1,016,238.

This is based on house price inflation of 45.2%, between May 2016 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 45.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SOUTHGATE of £700,000 on 6th May 2016. For the value to have increased from £700,000 to £1,016,238 over the seven years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SOUTHGATE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area.
• The May 2016 sale price of £700,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of SOUTHGATE has not materially changed since May 2016.
