BENHAM Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Surrey Heath local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three BENHAM sales between November 2005 and March 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 May 2013 sale was for 210% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 210% above the HPI over time, until the March 2020 sale, where it falls to 122% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 122% above the HPI.

What might BENHAM be worth now?

BENHAM might now be worth an estimated £1,677,216.

This is based on house price inflation of 15.7%, between March 2020 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Surrey Heath local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 15.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BENHAM of £1,450,000 on 16th March 2020. For the value to have increased from £1,450,000 to £1,677,216 over the three years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BENHAM has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Surrey Heath local authority area.
• The March 2020 sale price of £1,450,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BENHAM has not materially changed since March 2020.
