6 MERTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Sandwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 6 MERTON CLOSE sales between September 1998 and November 2019 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 2012 sale was for 23% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% above the HPI over time, until the November 2019 sale, where it falls to 12% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% above the HPI.

What might 6 MERTON CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 41.8%, between November 2019 and October 2025, for terraced houses, in the Sandwell local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 41.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 6 MERTON CLOSE of £149,000 on 22nd November 2019. For the value to have increased from £149,000 to £211,285 over the six years and one month to October 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
