18 ESMEAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Wiltshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 18 ESMEAD sales between April 2001 and May 2016 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 February 2014 sale was for 23% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% above the HPI over time, until the May 2016 sale, where it falls to 9% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% above the HPI.

What might 18 ESMEAD be worth now?

18 ESMEAD might now be worth an estimated £360,647.

This is based on house price inflation of 36.6%, between May 2016 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Wiltshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 36.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 ESMEAD of £264,000 on 31st May 2016. For the value to have increased from £264,000 to £360,647 over the seven years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 18 ESMEAD has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Wiltshire local authority area.
• The May 2016 sale price of £264,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 18 ESMEAD has not materially changed since May 2016.
