BRIM HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BRIM HOUSE sales from March 2003 and April 2010 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 2003 sale was for 136% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 136% above the HPI over time, until the April 2010 sale, where it rises to 342% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 342% above the HPI.

What might BRIM HOUSE be worth now?

BRIM HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £1,921,739.

This is based on house price inflation of 60.1%, between April 2010 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Torbay local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 60.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BRIM HOUSE of £1,200,000 on 12th April 2010. For the value to have increased from £1,200,000 to £1,921,739 over the fifteen years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BRIM HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Torbay local authority area.
• The April 2010 sale price of £1,200,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BRIM HOUSE has not materially changed since April 2010.
