HIGHFIELD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Preston local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HIGHFIELD sales from July 1998 and May 2014 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 July 1998 sale was for 70% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 70% above the HPI over time, until the May 2014 sale, where it falls to 48% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% above the HPI.

What might HIGHFIELD be worth now?

HIGHFIELD might now be worth an estimated £482,313.

This is based on house price inflation of 48.4%, between May 2014 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Preston local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 48.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HIGHFIELD of £325,000 on 23rd May 2014. For the value to have increased from £325,000 to £482,313 over the nine years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HIGHFIELD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Preston local authority area.
• The May 2014 sale price of £325,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HIGHFIELD has not materially changed since May 2014.
