42 SOUTH DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Birmingham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 42 SOUTH DRIVE sales from October 1996 and October 1999 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 October 1996 sale was for 59% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 59% above the HPI over time, until the October 1999 sale, where it rises to 91% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 91% above the HPI.

What might 42 SOUTH DRIVE be worth now?

42 SOUTH DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £520,433.

This is based on house price inflation of 342.9%, between October 1999 and May 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the Birmingham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 342.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 42 SOUTH DRIVE of £117,500 on 15th October 1999. For the value to have increased from £117,500 to £520,433 over the 27 years and five months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:
