ACORNS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tunbridge Wells local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two ACORNS sales from March 2004 and January 2013 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 March 2004 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the January 2013 sale, where it rises to 12% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% above the HPI.

What might ACORNS be worth now?

ACORNS might now be worth an estimated £961,322.

This is based on house price inflation of 68.7%, between January 2013 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Tunbridge Wells local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 68.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ACORNS of £570,000 on 11th January 2013. For the value to have increased from £570,000 to £961,322 over the eleven years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ACORNS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Tunbridge Wells local authority area.
• The January 2013 sale price of £570,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ACORNS has not materially changed since January 2013.
