FOX LEYS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Blaby local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four FOX LEYS sales between March 2001 and February 2024 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 2005 sale was for 53% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 53% above the HPI over time, until the February 2024 sale, where it rises to 64% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 64% above the HPI.

What might FOX LEYS be worth now?

FOX LEYS might now be worth an estimated £646,524.

This is based on house price inflation of 1%, between February 2024 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Blaby local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for FOX LEYS of £640,000 on 26th February 2024. For the value to have increased from £640,000 to £646,524 over the two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FOX LEYS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Blaby local authority area.
• The February 2024 sale price of £640,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of FOX LEYS has not materially changed since February 2024.
