HIGHCROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cornwall local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HIGHCROFT sales from August 2015 and August 2019 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 2015 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the August 2019 sale, where it rises to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.

What might HIGHCROFT be worth now?

HIGHCROFT might now be worth an estimated £421,436.

This is based on house price inflation of 28.7%, between August 2019 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Cornwall local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 28.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HIGHCROFT of £327,500 on 7th August 2019. For the value to have increased from £327,500 to £421,436 over the four years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HIGHCROFT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cornwall local authority area.
• The August 2019 sale price of £327,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HIGHCROFT has not materially changed since August 2019.
