DRIVE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Yorkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two DRIVE COTTAGE sales from August 2021 and January 2023 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 2021 sale was for 4% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% below the HPI over time, until the January 2023 sale, where it rises to 1% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% below the HPI.

What might DRIVE COTTAGE be worth now?

DRIVE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £439,110.

This is based on house price inflation of 3%, between January 2023 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the North Yorkshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for DRIVE COTTAGE of £426,200 on 6th January 2023. For the value to have increased from £426,200 to £439,110 over the one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of DRIVE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Yorkshire local authority area.
• The January 2023 sale price of £426,200 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of DRIVE COTTAGE has not materially changed since January 2023.
