14 THE CREST Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Buckinghamshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 14 THE CREST sales from June 1995 and April 2015 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 June 1995 sale was for 11% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% below the HPI over time, until the April 2015 sale, where it rises to 26% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% above the HPI.

What might 14 THE CREST be worth now?

14 THE CREST might now be worth an estimated £1,067,816.

This is based on house price inflation of 39%, between April 2015 and February 2025, for 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 39% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 14 THE CREST of £768,000 on 16th April 2015. For the value to have increased from £768,000 to £1,067,816 over the ten years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 14 THE CREST has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Buckinghamshire local authority area.
• The April 2015 sale price of £768,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 14 THE CREST has not materially changed since April 2015.
