4 THE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Liverpool local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 4 THE CLOSE sales between July 2002 and August 2023 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 2018 sale was for 19% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% above the HPI over time, until the August 2023 sale, where it rises to 30% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% above the HPI.

What might 4 THE CLOSE be worth now?

4 THE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £291,743.

This is based on house price inflation of 10.1%, between August 2023 and March 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Liverpool local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 10.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 THE CLOSE of £265,000 on 24th August 2023. For the value to have increased from £265,000 to £291,743 over the two years and five months to March 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 THE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Liverpool local authority area.
• The August 2023 sale price of £265,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 4 THE CLOSE has not materially changed since August 2023.
