HARPER Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Rother local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HARPER sales from August 2014 and March 2021 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 2014 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the March 2021 sale, where it falls to 35% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% below the HPI.

What might HARPER be worth now?

HARPER might now be worth an estimated £366,988.

This is based on house price inflation of 12.9%, between March 2021 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Rother local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 12.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HARPER of £325,000 on 12th March 2021. For the value to have increased from £325,000 to £366,988 over the four years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HARPER has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Rother local authority area.
• The March 2021 sale price of £325,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HARPER has not materially changed since March 2021.
