DOWN CLOSE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the East Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two DOWN CLOSE COTTAGE sales from April 2010 and January 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 April 2010 sale was for 6% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% above the HPI over time, until the January 2019 sale, where it falls to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.

What might DOWN CLOSE COTTAGE be worth now?

DOWN CLOSE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £432,149.

This is based on house price inflation of 20%, between January 2019 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the East Devon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 20% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for DOWN CLOSE COTTAGE of £360,000 on 30th January 2019. For the value to have increased from £360,000 to £432,149 over the five years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of DOWN CLOSE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the East Devon local authority area.
• The January 2019 sale price of £360,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
