3 ORCHARD LEA Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wychavon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3 ORCHARD LEA sales from February 2014 and February 2021 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 2014 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the February 2021 sale, where it rises to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.

What might 3 ORCHARD LEA be worth now?

3 ORCHARD LEA might now be worth an estimated £521,813.

This is based on house price inflation of 16%, between February 2021 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Wychavon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 16% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 ORCHARD LEA of £450,000 on 24th February 2021. For the value to have increased from £450,000 to £521,813 over the two years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 ORCHARD LEA has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wychavon local authority area.
• The February 2021 sale price of £450,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
