5 BIRD WOOD COURT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 BIRD WOOD COURT sales between July 2001 and December 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 January 2007 sale was for 85% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 85% above the HPI over time, until the December 2009 sale, where it falls to 75% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 75% above the HPI.

What might 5 BIRD WOOD COURT be worth now?

5 BIRD WOOD COURT might now be worth an estimated £1,379,832.

This is based on house price inflation of 86.5%, between December 2009 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the South Oxfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 86.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 BIRD WOOD COURT of £740,000 on 18th December 2009. For the value to have increased from £740,000 to £1,379,832 over the sixteen years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

  • The value of 5 BIRD WOOD COURT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the South Oxfordshire local authority area.
  • The December 2009 sale price of £740,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
  • The size, condition, and specification of 5 BIRD WOOD COURT has not materially changed since December 2009.
