17 SMYTH CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Harborough local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 17 SMYTH CLOSE sales between August 1996 and February 2009 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 2005 sale was for 37% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% above the HPI over time, until the February 2009 sale, where it falls to 26% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% above the HPI.

What might 17 SMYTH CLOSE be worth now?

17 SMYTH CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £619,806.

This is based on house price inflation of 117.5%, between February 2009 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Harborough local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 117.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 SMYTH CLOSE of £285,000 on 5th February 2009. For the value to have increased from £285,000 to £619,806 over the fourteen years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 17 SMYTH CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Harborough local authority area.
• The February 2009 sale price of £285,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
