26 COPSE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Oadby and Wigston local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 26 COPSE CLOSE sales from August 2002 and August 2013 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 August 2002 sale was for 40% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% above the HPI over time, until the August 2013 sale, where it falls to 36% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% above the HPI.

What might 26 COPSE CLOSE be worth now?

26 COPSE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £542,982.

This is based on house price inflation of 66.4%, between August 2013 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Oadby and Wigston local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 66.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 26 COPSE CLOSE of £326,250 on 9th August 2013. For the value to have increased from £326,250 to £542,982 over the ten years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
