THE BIRCHES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Leeds local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE BIRCHES sales from February 2002 and May 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 February 2002 sale was for 234% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 234% above the HPI over time, until the May 2017 sale, where it falls to 143% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 143% above the HPI.

What might THE BIRCHES be worth now?

THE BIRCHES might now be worth an estimated £1,089,621.

This is based on house price inflation of 46.3%, between May 2017 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Leeds local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 46.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE BIRCHES of £745,000 on 31st May 2017. For the value to have increased from £745,000 to £1,089,621 over the eight years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE BIRCHES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Leeds local authority area.
• The May 2017 sale price of £745,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE BIRCHES has not materially changed since May 2017.
