CARTREF Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sevenoaks local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two CARTREF sales from March 2008 and June 2021 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 2008 sale was for 43% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% below the HPI over time, until the June 2021 sale, where it rises to 32% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% below the HPI.

What might CARTREF be worth now?

CARTREF might now be worth an estimated £639,228.

This is based on house price inflation of 9.7%, between June 2021 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Sevenoaks local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 9.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CARTREF of £582,500 on 29th June 2021. For the value to have increased from £582,500 to £639,228 over the two years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CARTREF has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Sevenoaks local authority area.
• The June 2021 sale price of £582,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of CARTREF has not materially changed since June 2021.
