4 BLAKE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 BLAKE CLOSE sales from September 1997 and June 2009 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 1997 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the June 2009 sale, where it falls to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.

What might 4 BLAKE CLOSE be worth now?

4 BLAKE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £232,867.

This is based on house price inflation of 66.3%, between June 2009 and May 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the Torbay local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 66.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 BLAKE CLOSE of £140,000 on 5th June 2009. For the value to have increased from £140,000 to £232,867 over the seventeen years and one month to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 BLAKE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Torbay local authority area.
• The June 2009 sale price of £140,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
