297 SCRAPTOFT LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Leicester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 297 SCRAPTOFT LANE sales from June 2005 and June 2011 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 June 2005 sale was for 39% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% above the HPI over time, until the June 2011 sale, where it rises to 43% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% above the HPI.

What might 297 SCRAPTOFT LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 104.4%, between June 2011 and December 2024, for semi-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).
