The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Blaby local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 WHITESAND CLOSE sales between March 2007 and December 2018 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 November 2012 sale was for 18% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% above the HPI over time, until the December 2018 sale, where it falls to 16% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% above the HPI.
5 WHITESAND CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £305,128.
This is based on house price inflation of 31.2%, between December 2018 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Blaby local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 31.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 WHITESAND CLOSE of £232,500 on 13th December 2018. For the value to have increased from £232,500 to £305,128 over the six years to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
