5 ELDER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Buckinghamshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 ELDER CLOSE sales from February 1998 and October 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 February 1998 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the October 2017 sale, which was also at 16% below the HPI.

What might 5 ELDER CLOSE be worth now?

5 ELDER CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £404,569.

This is based on house price inflation of 19%, between October 2017 and May 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the Buckinghamshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 19% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 ELDER CLOSE of £340,000 on 27th October 2017. For the value to have increased from £340,000 to £404,569 over the nine years and five months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 ELDER CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Buckinghamshire local authority area.
• The October 2017 sale price of £340,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 5 ELDER CLOSE has not materially changed since October 2017.
