12 MEARS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Barnsley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 12 MEARS CLOSE sales from February 2004 and September 2009 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 2004 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the September 2009 sale, which was also at 13% below the HPI.

What might 12 MEARS CLOSE be worth now?

The 58.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 12 MEARS CLOSE of £144,000 on 30th September 2009. For the value to have increased from £144,000 to £228,449 over the sixteen years and one month to August 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
