DRUMMONDS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Teignbridge local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three DRUMMONDS sales between September 1996 and September 2016 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 January 2007 sale was for 95% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 95% above the HPI over time, until the September 2016 sale, where it falls to 60% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 60% above the HPI.

What might DRUMMONDS be worth now?

DRUMMONDS might now be worth an estimated £749,585.

This is based on house price inflation of 35.1%, between September 2016 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Teignbridge local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 35.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for DRUMMONDS of £555,000 on 26th September 2016. For the value to have increased from £555,000 to £749,585 over the seven years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of DRUMMONDS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Teignbridge local authority area.
• The September 2016 sale price of £555,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of DRUMMONDS has not materially changed since September 2016.
