2 THORNTOP CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North West Leicestershire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 2 THORNTOP CLOSE sales between December 1996 and September 2020 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 2004 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the September 2020 sale, where it falls to 22% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% below the HPI.

What might 2 THORNTOP CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 23.3%, between September 2020 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the North West Leicestershire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 23.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 THORNTOP CLOSE of £247,500 on 15th September 2020. For the value to have increased from £247,500 to £305,241 over the three years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
