8 MOUNT CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Basingstoke and Deane local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 MOUNT CLOSE sales between February 1997 and December 2008 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 November 1999 sale was for 67% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 67% above the HPI over time, until the December 2008 sale, where it falls to 55% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 55% above the HPI.

What might 8 MOUNT CLOSE be worth now?

8 MOUNT CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £1,000,655.

This is based on house price inflation of 88.8%, between December 2008 and April 2026, for detached houses, in the Basingstoke and Deane local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 88.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 MOUNT CLOSE of £530,000 on 11th December 2008. For the value to have increased from £530,000 to £1,000,655 over the eighteen years and eight months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 MOUNT CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Basingstoke and Deane local authority area.
• The December 2008 sale price of £530,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
