5 ELY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Buckinghamshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 ELY CLOSE sales between July 1998 and October 2019 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 August 2001 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the October 2019 sale, where it rises to 10% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% below the HPI.

What might 5 ELY CLOSE be worth now?

5 ELY CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £750,455.

This is based on house price inflation of 12.6%, between October 2019 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Buckinghamshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 12.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 ELY CLOSE of £666,500 on 25th October 2019. For the value to have increased from £666,500 to £750,455 over the four years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 ELY CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Buckinghamshire local authority area.
• The October 2019 sale price of £666,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 5 ELY CLOSE has not materially changed since October 2019.
