8 DOWLES CROFT 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 8 DOWLES CROFT sales from November 2001 and June 2020 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 November 2001 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the June 2020 sale, where it falls to 40% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% below the HPI.

What might 8 DOWLES CROFT be worth now?

8 DOWLES CROFT might now be worth an estimated £281,803.

This is based on house price inflation of 18.7%, between June 2020 and February 2025, 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 18.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 DOWLES CROFT of £237,500 on 3rd June 2020. For the value to have increased from £237,500 to £281,803 over the five years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The June 2020 sale price of £237,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
