5 ECOB CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Guildford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 5 ECOB CLOSE sales between August 1997 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 April 2021 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the September 2024 sale, where it falls to 8% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% below the HPI.

What might 5 ECOB CLOSE be worth now?

5 ECOB CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £475,798.

This is based on house price deflation of 0.9%, between September 2024 and April 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the Guildford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 0.9% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 ECOB CLOSE of £480,000 on 24th September 2024. For the value to have decreased from £480,000 to £475,798 over the two years and five months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 ECOB CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Guildford local authority area.
• The September 2024 sale price of £480,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
