3 MERTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Northamptonshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 3 MERTON CLOSE sales between April 1998 and August 2015 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 2000 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the August 2015 sale, where it rises to 1% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% below the HPI.

What might 3 MERTON CLOSE be worth now?

3 MERTON CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £467,293.

This is based on house price inflation of 42.9%, between August 2015 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the West Northamptonshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 42.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 MERTON CLOSE of £327,000 on 24th August 2015. For the value to have increased from £327,000 to £467,293 over the ten years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 MERTON CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Northamptonshire local authority area.
• The August 2015 sale price of £327,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
