BRUINS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Teignbridge local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BRUINS sales from November 1996 and March 1999 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 November 1996 sale was for 35% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% above the HPI over time, until the March 1999 sale, where it falls to 20% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% above the HPI.

What might BRUINS be worth now?

BRUINS might now be worth an estimated £565,451.

This is based on house price inflation of 335%, between March 1999 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Teignbridge local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 335% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BRUINS of £130,000 on 12th March 1999. For the value to have increased from £130,000 to £565,451 over the 24 years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BRUINS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Teignbridge local authority area.
• The March 1999 sale price of £130,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BRUINS has not materially changed since March 1999.
