5 HODSON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 HODSON CLOSE sales from March 2019 and June 2022 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 March 2019 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the June 2022 sale, where it falls to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.

What might 5 HODSON CLOSE be worth now?

5 HODSON CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £280,479.

This is based on house price inflation of 12%, between June 2022 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 12% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 HODSON CLOSE of £250,500 on 24th June 2022. For the value to have increased from £250,500 to £280,479 over the one year and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 HODSON CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area.
• The June 2022 sale price of £250,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
