2 GAVIN CLOSE 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 2 GAVIN CLOSE sales between July 2000 and January 2022 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 August 2003 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the January 2022 sale, which was also at 30% below the HPI.

What might 2 GAVIN CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 7.4%, between January 2022 and April 2026, 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 7.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 GAVIN CLOSE of £252,000 on 7th January 2022. For the value to have increased from £252,000 to £270,638 over the three years and nine months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:
