DORMA COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Tendring local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two DORMA COTTAGE sales from August 1997 and January 1998 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 August 1997 sale was for 44% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% below the HPI over time, until the January 1998 sale, where it rises to 36% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% below the HPI.

What might DORMA COTTAGE be worth now?

DORMA COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £242,558.

This is based on house price inflation of 405.3%, between January 1998 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Tendring local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 405.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for DORMA COTTAGE of £48,000 on 29th January 1998. For the value to have increased from £48,000 to £242,558 over the 26 years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of DORMA COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Tendring local authority area.
• The January 1998 sale price of £48,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of DORMA COTTAGE has not materially changed since January 1998.
