DIAMOND COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dover local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two DIAMOND COTTAGE sales from May 2007 and October 2019 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 May 2007 sale was for 48% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 48% below the HPI over time, until the October 2019 sale, which was also at 48% below the HPI.

What might DIAMOND COTTAGE be worth now?

DIAMOND COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £261,146.

This is based on house price inflation of 16.1%, between October 2019 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Dover local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 16.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for DIAMOND COTTAGE of £225,000 on 28th October 2019. For the value to have increased from £225,000 to £261,146 over the six years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of DIAMOND COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dover local authority area.
• The October 2019 sale price of £225,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of DIAMOND COTTAGE has not materially changed since October 2019.
