ELLESAE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torridge local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five ELLESAE sales between December 2002 and August 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 September 2012 sale was for 30% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% above the HPI over time, until the August 2016 sale, where it falls to 27% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% above the HPI.

What might ELLESAE be worth now?

ELLESAE might now be worth an estimated £508,899.

This is based on house price inflation of 37.5%, between August 2016 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Torridge local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 37.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ELLESAE of £370,000 on 4th August 2016. For the value to have increased from £370,000 to £508,899 over the seven years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ELLESAE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Torridge local authority area.
• The August 2016 sale price of £370,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ELLESAE has not materially changed since August 2016.
