THE CROFT 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 THE CROFT sales between April 2014 and August 2022 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 November 2017 sale was for 23% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% above the HPI over time, until the August 2022 sale, which was also at 23% above the HPI.

What might THE CROFT be worth now?

THE CROFT might now be worth an estimated £531,225.

This is based on house price inflation of 6.3%, between August 2022 and February 2025, 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 6.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE CROFT of £499,950 on 17th August 2022. For the value to have increased from £499,950 to £531,225 over the three years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE CROFT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the South Staffordshire local authority area.
• The August 2022 sale price of £499,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE CROFT has not materially changed since August 2022.
