24 HERON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the East Hampshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 24 HERON CLOSE sales from September 1997 and July 2012 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 1997 sale was for 25% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% above the HPI over time, until the July 2012 sale, where it falls to 6% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% below the HPI.

What might 24 HERON CLOSE be worth now?

24 HERON CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £404,680.

This is based on house price inflation of 68.6%, between July 2012 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the East Hampshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 68.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 24 HERON CLOSE of £240,000 on 27th July 2012. For the value to have increased from £240,000 to £404,680 over the eleven years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 24 HERON CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the East Hampshire local authority area.
• The July 2012 sale price of £240,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
