12 SWAN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Buckinghamshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 12 SWAN CLOSE sales from March 2011 and October 2012 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 March 2011 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the October 2012 sale, where it rises to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.

What might 12 SWAN CLOSE be worth now?

12 SWAN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £505,308.

This is based on house price inflation of 71.3%, between October 2012 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Buckinghamshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 71.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 12 SWAN CLOSE of £295,000 on 25th October 2012. For the value to have increased from £295,000 to £505,308 over the thirteen years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 12 SWAN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Buckinghamshire local authority area.
• The October 2012 sale price of £295,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
