21 SWORD 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 five 21 SWORD CLOSE sales between August 1997 and August 2016 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 September 2007 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the August 2016 sale, where it rises to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.

What might 21 SWORD CLOSE be worth now?

21 SWORD CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £263,611.

This is based on house price inflation of 50.6%, between August 2016 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 50.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 21 SWORD CLOSE of £175,000 on 8th August 2016. For the value to have increased from £175,000 to £263,611 over the nine years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 21 SWORD CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Blaby local authority area.
• The August 2016 sale price of £175,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 21 SWORD CLOSE has not materially changed since August 2016.
