17 FIELD 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 17 FIELD CLOSE sales between February 1997 and December 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 September 2016 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the December 2019 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.

What might 17 FIELD CLOSE be worth now?

17 FIELD CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £302,317.

This is based on house price inflation of 26%, between December 2019 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 26% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 FIELD CLOSE of £240,000 on 20th December 2019. For the value to have increased from £240,000 to £302,317 over the five years to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 17 FIELD CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Blaby local authority area.
• The December 2019 sale price of £240,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
