25 WEST STREET Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Leicester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 25 WEST STREET sales between October 1997 and August 2001 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 1997 sale was for 24% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% above the HPI over time, until the August 2001 sale, where it rises to 36% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% above the HPI.

What might 25 WEST STREET be worth now?

25 WEST STREET might now be worth an estimated £524,394.

This is based on house price inflation of 280%, between August 2001 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Leicester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 280% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 25 WEST STREET of £138,000 on 31st August 2001. For the value to have increased from £138,000 to £524,394 over the 22 years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
