2 HIGHERGATE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Hyndburn local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 HIGHERGATE CLOSE sales from October 1995 and May 2008 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 1995 sale was for 18% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% above the HPI over time, until the May 2008 sale, where it rises to 24% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% above the HPI.

What might 2 HIGHERGATE CLOSE be worth now?

2 HIGHERGATE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £306,980.

This is based on house price inflation of 33.5%, between May 2008 and July 2026, for detached houses, in the Hyndburn local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 33.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 HIGHERGATE CLOSE of £230,000 on 23rd May 2008. For the value to have increased from £230,000 to £306,980 over the seventeen years and ten months to July 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 HIGHERGATE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Hyndburn local authority area.
• The May 2008 sale price of £230,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 2 HIGHERGATE CLOSE has not materially changed since May 2008.
