19 FRANCIS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the South Staffordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 19 FRANCIS CLOSE sales from August 1997 and July 2005 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 August 1997 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the July 2005 sale, where it falls to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.

What might 19 FRANCIS CLOSE be worth now?

19 FRANCIS CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £255,616.

This is based on house price inflation of 76.3%, between July 2005 and February 2025, for semi-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 76.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 19 FRANCIS CLOSE of £145,000 on 29th July 2005. For the value to have increased from £145,000 to £255,616 over the twenty years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 19 FRANCIS CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the South Staffordshire local authority area.
• The July 2005 sale price of £145,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
