1 WESTGATE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Leeds local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 WESTGATE CLOSE sales from November 1997 and May 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 November 1997 sale was for 27% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% below the HPI over time, until the May 2013 sale, where it rises to 36% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% above the HPI.

What might 1 WESTGATE CLOSE be worth now?

1 WESTGATE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £367,049.

This is based on house price inflation of 93.2%, between May 2013 and April 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the Leeds local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 93.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 WESTGATE CLOSE of £190,000 on 29th May 2013. For the value to have increased from £190,000 to £367,049 over the thirteen years and one month to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 WESTGATE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Leeds local authority area.
• The May 2013 sale price of £190,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
