16 WELCH WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Test Valley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 16 WELCH WAY sales from November 2014 and August 2018 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 November 2014 sale was for 47% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 47% below the HPI over time, until the August 2018 sale, where it rises to 35% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% below the HPI.

What might 16 WELCH WAY be worth now?

16 WELCH WAY might now be worth an estimated £393,803.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.2%, between August 2018 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Test Valley local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 21.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 WELCH WAY of £325,000 on 10th August 2018. For the value to have increased from £325,000 to £393,803 over the five years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The August 2018 sale price of £325,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
