THE MAPLES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Lancashire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE MAPLES sales from December 2008 and June 2014 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 December 2008 sale was for 188% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 188% above the HPI over time, until the June 2014 sale, where it falls to 108% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 108% above the HPI.

What might THE MAPLES be worth now?

THE MAPLES might now be worth an estimated £757,031.

This is based on house price inflation of 53.7%, between June 2014 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the West Lancashire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 53.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE MAPLES of £492,500 on 16th June 2014. For the value to have increased from £492,500 to £757,031 over the eleven years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE MAPLES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Lancashire local authority area.
• The June 2014 sale price of £492,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE MAPLES has not materially changed since June 2014.
