3 THE COTTONS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the North Northamptonshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 3 THE COTTONS sales between December 1996 and April 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 April 1997 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the April 2008 sale, where it rises to 16% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% above the HPI.

What might 3 THE COTTONS be worth now?

3 THE COTTONS might now be worth an estimated £292,694.

This is based on house price inflation of 78.5%, between April 2008 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the North Northamptonshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 78.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 THE COTTONS of £164,000 on 30th April 2008. For the value to have increased from £164,000 to £292,694 over the fifteen years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 THE COTTONS has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the North Northamptonshire local authority area.
• The April 2008 sale price of £164,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 3 THE COTTONS has not materially changed since April 2008.
