5 GARTH CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wiltshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 GARTH CLOSE sales from December 2006 and July 2016 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 December 2006 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the July 2016 sale, where it rises to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.

What might 5 GARTH CLOSE be worth now?

5 GARTH CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £507,126.

This is based on house price inflation of 31%, between July 2016 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Wiltshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 31% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 GARTH CLOSE of £387,000 on 19th July 2016. For the value to have increased from £387,000 to £507,126 over the seven years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 GARTH CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wiltshire local authority area.
• The July 2016 sale price of £387,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 5 GARTH CLOSE has not materially changed since July 2016.
