4 THE POPLARS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Hinckley and Bosworth local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 4 THE POPLARS sales between August 1995 and August 2022 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 May 2022 sale was for 42% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 42% below the HPI over time, until the August 2022 sale, where it rises to 36% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% below the HPI.

What might 4 THE POPLARS be worth now?

4 THE POPLARS might now be worth an estimated £245,517.

This is based on house price deflation of 1.8%, between August 2022 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Hinckley and Bosworth local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1.8% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 THE POPLARS of £250,000 on 31st August 2022. For the value to have decreased from £250,000 to £245,517 over the one year and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 THE POPLARS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Hinckley and Bosworth local authority area.
• The August 2022 sale price of £250,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 4 THE POPLARS has not materially changed since August 2022.
