7 BENSON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Gloucester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 7 BENSON CLOSE sales between July 1999 and December 2020 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 October 2012 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it rises to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.

What might 7 BENSON CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 20%, between December 2020 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Gloucester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 20% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 BENSON CLOSE of £348,000 on 18th December 2020. For the value to have increased from £348,000 to £417,733 over the five years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 7 BENSON CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Gloucester local authority area.
