BUMBLES FOLLY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bracknell Forest local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BUMBLES FOLLY sales from September 2000 and November 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 September 2000 sale was for 6% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% above the HPI over time, until the November 2020 sale, where it falls to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.

What might BUMBLES FOLLY be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 14.5%, between November 2020 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Bracknell Forest local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 14.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BUMBLES FOLLY of £660,000 on 20th November 2020. For the value to have increased from £660,000 to £755,638 over the three years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
