ALCESTER Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Woking local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three ALCESTER sales between June 2005 and March 2015 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 2013 sale was for 59% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 59% above the HPI over time, until the March 2015 sale, where it rises to 103% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 103% above the HPI.

What might ALCESTER be worth now?

ALCESTER might now be worth an estimated £1,886,427.

This is based on house price inflation of 30.1%, between March 2015 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Woking local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 30.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ALCESTER of £1,450,000 on 18th March 2015. For the value to have increased from £1,450,000 to £1,886,427 over the eight years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ALCESTER has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Woking local authority area.
• The March 2015 sale price of £1,450,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ALCESTER has not materially changed since March 2015.
