2 TOP CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Blaby local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 2 TOP CLOSE sales between May 1996 and November 2017 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 2005 sale was for 4% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% below the HPI over time, until the November 2017 sale, which was also at 4% below the HPI.

What might 2 TOP CLOSE be worth now?

2 TOP CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £208,658.

This is based on house price inflation of 30.5%, between November 2017 and May 2026, for terraced 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 30.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 TOP CLOSE of £159,950 on 28th November 2017. For the value to have increased from £159,950 to £208,658 over the nine years and six months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 TOP CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the Blaby local authority area.
• The November 2017 sale price of £159,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 2 TOP CLOSE has not materially changed since November 2017.
