5 CEDAR CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 CEDAR CLOSE sales from January 2006 and October 2015 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 2006 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the October 2015 sale, where it falls to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.

What might 5 CEDAR CLOSE be worth now?

5 CEDAR CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £280,606.

This is based on house price inflation of 49.3%, between October 2015 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 49.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 CEDAR CLOSE of £188,000 on 20th October 2015. For the value to have increased from £188,000 to £280,606 over the eight years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 CEDAR CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area.
• The October 2015 sale price of £188,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
