4 MARTHA CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Blaby local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 MARTHA CLOSE sales from March 2014 and April 2017 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 March 2014 sale was for 9% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 9% above the HPI over time, until the April 2017 sale, where it rises to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.

What might 4 MARTHA CLOSE be worth now?

4 MARTHA CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £434,103.

This is based on house price inflation of 40%, between April 2017 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Blaby local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 40% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 MARTHA CLOSE of £310,000 on 13th April 2017. For the value to have increased from £310,000 to £434,103 over the eight years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 MARTHA CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Blaby local authority area.
• The April 2017 sale price of £310,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
