ASHCROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two ASHCROFT sales from December 2007 and February 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 December 2007 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the February 2020 sale, where it falls to 33% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% below the HPI.

What might ASHCROFT be worth now?

ASHCROFT might now be worth an estimated £307,580.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.1%, between February 2020 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the West Devon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 21.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ASHCROFT of £254,000 on 28th February 2020. For the value to have increased from £254,000 to £307,580 over the three years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ASHCROFT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Devon local authority area.
• The February 2020 sale price of £254,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ASHCROFT has not materially changed since February 2020.
