6A THE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the West Northamptonshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 6A THE CLOSE sales between August 2004 and September 2021 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 2009 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the September 2021 sale, where it falls to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.

What might 6A THE CLOSE be worth now?

6A THE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £277,187.

This is based on house price inflation of 13.1%, between September 2021 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the West Northamptonshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 13.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 6A THE CLOSE of £245,000 on 23rd September 2021. For the value to have increased from £245,000 to £277,187 over the two years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 6A THE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the West Northamptonshire local authority area.
• The September 2021 sale price of £245,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 6A THE CLOSE has not materially changed since September 2021.
