1 LUDLAM CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Blaby local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 1 LUDLAM CLOSE sales between February 1996 and September 2011 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 April 2006 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the September 2011 sale, where it rises to 6% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% above the HPI.

What might 1 LUDLAM CLOSE be worth now?

1 LUDLAM CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £419,050.

This is based on house price inflation of 79.5%, between September 2011 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Blaby local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 79.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 LUDLAM CLOSE of £233,500 on 2nd September 2011. For the value to have increased from £233,500 to £419,050 over the twelve years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 LUDLAM CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Blaby local authority area.
• The September 2011 sale price of £233,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
