GOOSE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two GOOSE COTTAGE sales from May 2007 and June 2017 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 May 2007 sale was for 65% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 65% above the HPI over time, until the June 2017 sale, where it falls to 41% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% above the HPI.

What might GOOSE COTTAGE be worth now?

GOOSE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £644,398.

This is based on house price inflation of 31.5%, between June 2017 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Somerset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 31.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for GOOSE COTTAGE of £490,000 on 23rd June 2017. For the value to have increased from £490,000 to £644,398 over the six years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of GOOSE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Somerset local authority area.
• The June 2017 sale price of £490,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of GOOSE COTTAGE has not materially changed since June 2017.
