6 FORGE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the South Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 6 FORGE CLOSE sales between October 2008 and June 2022 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 2015 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the June 2022 sale, where it falls to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.

What might 6 FORGE CLOSE be worth now?

6 FORGE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £340,948.

This is based on house price inflation of 3.3%, between June 2022 and April 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the South Oxfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 3.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 6 FORGE CLOSE of £330,000 on 1st June 2022. For the value to have increased from £330,000 to £340,948 over the four years and two months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 6 FORGE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the South Oxfordshire local authority area.
• The June 2022 sale price of £330,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
