The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Oadby and Wigston local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 79 FOSTON GATE sales between July 2002 and November 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 May 2016 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the November 2022 sale, where it falls to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.
79 FOSTON GATE might now be worth an estimated £215,231.

The 2.2% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 79 FOSTON GATE of £220,000 on 4th November 2022. For the value to have decreased from £220,000 to £215,231 over the three years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
