5 HOLDEN 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 three 5 HOLDEN CLOSE sales between May 1997 and July 2013 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 July 1999 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the July 2013 sale, which was also at 2% above the HPI.

What might 5 HOLDEN CLOSE be worth now?

5 HOLDEN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £265,814.

This is based on house price inflation of 83.3%, between July 2013 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 83.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 HOLDEN CLOSE of £145,000 on 30th July 2013. For the value to have increased from £145,000 to £265,814 over the twelve years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 HOLDEN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Blaby local authority area.
• The July 2013 sale price of £145,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
