HIGHCROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Ribble Valley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three HIGHCROFT sales between August 1998 and October 2024 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 2018 sale was for 29% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% above the HPI over time, until the October 2024 sale, where it rises to 43% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% above the HPI.

What might HIGHCROFT be worth now?

HIGHCROFT might now be worth an estimated £610,615.

This is based on house price deflation of 1.5%, between October 2024 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Ribble Valley local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1.5% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for HIGHCROFT of £620,000 on 11th October 2024. For the value to have decreased from £620,000 to £610,615 over the ten 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 Ribble Valley local authority area.
• The October 2024 sale price of £620,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HIGHCROFT has not materially changed since October 2024.
