496 WELFORD ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Leicester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 496 WELFORD ROAD sales from January 2013 and September 2024 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 January 2013 sale was for 31% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% above the HPI over time, until the September 2024 sale, where it falls to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.

What might 496 WELFORD ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 2.2%, between September 2024 and July 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Leicester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 2.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 496 WELFORD ROAD of £285,000 on 2nd September 2024. For the value to have increased from £285,000 to £291,181 over the one year and two months to July 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
