2 KIRKSTEAD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 2 KIRKSTEAD CLOSE sales between December 1996 and September 2018 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 January 2013 sale was for 37% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% below the HPI over time, until the September 2018 sale, where it rises to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.

What might 2 KIRKSTEAD CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 25.6%, between September 2018 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Torbay local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 25.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 KIRKSTEAD CLOSE of £230,000 on 21st September 2018. For the value to have increased from £230,000 to £288,842 over the seven years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
