DOVECOTE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the York local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three DOVECOTE sales between May 1999 and November 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 September 2005 sale was for 74% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 74% above the HPI over time, until the November 2021 sale, where it falls to 32% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% above the HPI.

What might DOVECOTE be worth now?

DOVECOTE might now be worth an estimated £647,960.

This is based on house price inflation of 3.7%, between November 2021 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the York local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 3.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for DOVECOTE of £625,000 on 30th November 2021. For the value to have increased from £625,000 to £647,960 over the four years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of DOVECOTE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the York local authority area.
• The November 2021 sale price of £625,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of DOVECOTE has not materially changed since November 2021.
