15 BIGGS CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Blaby local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 15 BIGGS CLOSE sales from June 1995 and September 1999 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 June 1995 sale was for 19% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% above the HPI over time, until the September 1999 sale, where it falls to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.

What might 15 BIGGS CLOSE be worth now?

15 BIGGS CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £297,511.

This is based on house price inflation of 340.8%, between September 1999 and February 2025, for semi-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 340.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 15 BIGGS CLOSE of £67,500 on 13th September 1999. For the value to have increased from £67,500 to £297,511 over the 26 years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
