5 COWICK LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Exeter local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 COWICK LANE sales from December 2001 and March 2016 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 December 2001 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the March 2016 sale, where it rises to 3% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% above the HPI.

What might 5 COWICK LANE be worth now?

5 COWICK LANE might now be worth an estimated £368,839.

This is based on house price inflation of 39.2%, between March 2016 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Exeter local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 39.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 COWICK LANE of £265,000 on 11th March 2016. For the value to have increased from £265,000 to £368,839 over the seven years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
