3 WHITLEY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Kesteven local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 3 WHITLEY CLOSE sales between April 1996 and September 2009 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 April 2005 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the September 2009 sale, where it rises to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.

What might 3 WHITLEY CLOSE be worth now?

3 WHITLEY CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £278,876.

This is based on house price inflation of 68%, between September 2009 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the North Kesteven local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 68% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 WHITLEY CLOSE of £166,000 on 25th September 2009. For the value to have increased from £166,000 to £278,876 over the fourteen years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 WHITLEY CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Kesteven local authority area.
• The September 2009 sale price of £166,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
