BEACONHILL Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the East Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three BEACONHILL sales between December 1997 and June 2012 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 August 2002 sale was for 49% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 49% above the HPI over time, until the June 2012 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.

What might BEACONHILL be worth now?

BEACONHILL might now be worth an estimated £261,610.

This is based on house price inflation of 58.6%, between June 2012 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the East Devon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 58.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BEACONHILL of £165,000 on 7th June 2012. For the value to have increased from £165,000 to £261,610 over the eleven years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BEACONHILL has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the East Devon local authority area.
• The June 2012 sale price of £165,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BEACONHILL has not materially changed since June 2012.
