5 THE LINK Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the York local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 5 THE LINK sales between January 1996 and May 2005 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 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the May 2005 sale, where it falls to 9% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% below the HPI.

What might 5 THE LINK be worth now?

5 THE LINK might now be worth an estimated £302,438.

This is based on house price inflation of 93.9%, between May 2005 and May 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the York local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 93.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 THE LINK of £156,000 on 4th May 2005. For the value to have increased from £156,000 to £302,438 over the 21 years to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 THE LINK has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the York local authority area.
• The May 2005 sale price of £156,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 5 THE LINK has not materially changed since May 2005.
