The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 78 DOLPHIN CRESCENT sales from June 1999 and June 2000 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 1999 sale was for 55% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 55% above the HPI over time, until the June 2000 sale, where it rises to 56% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 56% above the HPI.
78 DOLPHIN CRESCENT might now be worth an estimated £677,857.
This is based on house price inflation of 239%, between June 2000 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 239% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 78 DOLPHIN CRESCENT of £199,950 on 28th June 2000. For the value to have increased from £199,950 to £677,857 over the 25 years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
