5 HELENA CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire East local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 HELENA CLOSE sales between May 1998 and April 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 September 2016 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the April 2019 sale, where it falls to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.

What might 5 HELENA CLOSE be worth now?

5 HELENA CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £337,540.

This is based on house price inflation of 35%, between April 2019 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Cheshire East local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 35% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 HELENA CLOSE of £250,000 on 15th April 2019. For the value to have increased from £250,000 to £337,540 over the four years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 HELENA CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cheshire East local authority area.
• The April 2019 sale price of £250,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 5 HELENA CLOSE has not materially changed since April 2019.
