3 THE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the North Yorkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 3 THE CLOSE sales between January 2005 and November 2019 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 July 2010 sale was for 12% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% above the HPI over time, until the November 2019 sale, where it falls to 9% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% above the HPI.

What might 3 THE CLOSE be worth now?

3 THE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £293,787.

This is based on house price inflation of 25%, between November 2019 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the North Yorkshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 25% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 THE CLOSE of £235,000 on 14th November 2019. For the value to have increased from £235,000 to £293,787 over the six years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 THE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the North Yorkshire local authority area.
• The November 2019 sale price of £235,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 3 THE CLOSE has not materially changed since November 2019.
