CARMEL 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 CARMEL sales from September 1996 and January 2018 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 1996 sale was for 54% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 54% above the HPI over time, until the January 2018 sale, where it rises to 67% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 67% above the HPI.

What might CARMEL be worth now?

CARMEL might now be worth an estimated £727,469.

This is based on house price inflation of 28.8%, between January 2018 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 28.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CARMEL of £565,000 on 30th January 2018. For the value to have increased from £565,000 to £727,469 over the six years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CARMEL has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Torbay local authority area.
• The January 2018 sale price of £565,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of CARMEL has not materially changed since January 2018.
