8 DAMSON 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 8 DAMSON CLOSE sales between July 1998 and September 2019 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 2008 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the September 2019 sale, where it rises to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.

What might 8 DAMSON CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 28.1%, between September 2019 and December 2024, 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 28.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 DAMSON CLOSE of £261,500 on 13th September 2019. For the value to have increased from £261,500 to £334,997 over the four years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
