The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Buckinghamshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 72 STRAIGHT BIT sales from October 2010 and July 2013 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 2010 sale was for 18% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% above the HPI over time, until the July 2013 sale, where it rises to 22% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% above the HPI.
72 STRAIGHT BIT might now be worth an estimated £1,032,723.
This is based on house price inflation of 58.9%, between July 2013 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Buckinghamshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 58.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 72 STRAIGHT BIT of £650,000 on 30th July 2013. For the value to have increased from £650,000 to £1,032,723 over the twelve years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
