16 BIRD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Hinckley and Bosworth local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 16 BIRD CLOSE sales from March 2007 and March 2022 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 March 2007 sale was for 37% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% above the HPI over time, until the March 2022 sale, where it falls to 6% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% above the HPI.

What might 16 BIRD CLOSE be worth now?

16 BIRD CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £265,310.

This is based on house price inflation of 7.2%, between March 2022 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Hinckley and Bosworth local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 7.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 BIRD CLOSE of £247,500 on 31st March 2022. For the value to have increased from £247,500 to £265,310 over the three years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 16 BIRD CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Hinckley and Bosworth local authority area.
• The March 2022 sale price of £247,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
