DRIFT HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Fareham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three DRIFT HOUSE sales between December 2005 and May 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 February 2016 sale was for 363% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 363% above the HPI over time, until the May 2019 sale, where it rises to 441% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 441% above the HPI.

What might DRIFT HOUSE be worth now?

DRIFT HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £2,961,139.

This is based on house price inflation of 18.4%, between May 2019 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Fareham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 18.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for DRIFT HOUSE of £2,500,000 on 29th May 2019. For the value to have increased from £2,500,000 to £2,961,139 over the four years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of DRIFT HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Fareham local authority area.
• The May 2019 sale price of £2,500,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of DRIFT HOUSE has not materially changed since May 2019.
