CLOSE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Hart local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four CLOSE COTTAGE sales between August 1995 and September 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 November 2009 sale was for 41% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 41% above the HPI over time, until the September 2020 sale, where it falls to 17% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% above the HPI.

What might CLOSE COTTAGE be worth now?

CLOSE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £900,497.

This is based on house price inflation of 15.4%, between September 2020 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Hart local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 15.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CLOSE COTTAGE of £780,000 on 24th September 2020. For the value to have increased from £780,000 to £900,497 over the five years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CLOSE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Hart local authority area.
• The September 2020 sale price of £780,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of CLOSE COTTAGE has not materially changed since September 2020.
