8 THE POPLARS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Hinckley and Bosworth local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 THE POPLARS sales between June 2000 and May 2009 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 2004 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the May 2009 sale, where it rises to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.

What might 8 THE POPLARS be worth now?

8 THE POPLARS might now be worth an estimated £320,921.

This is based on house price inflation of 100.6%, between May 2009 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Hinckley and Bosworth local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 100.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 THE POPLARS of £160,000 on 1st May 2009. For the value to have increased from £160,000 to £320,921 over the sixteen years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 THE POPLARS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Hinckley and Bosworth local authority area.
• The May 2009 sale price of £160,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 8 THE POPLARS has not materially changed since May 2009.
