HIGHGATE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the West Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HIGHGATE sales from June 2019 and November 2023 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 June 2019 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the November 2023 sale, where it rises to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.

What might HIGHGATE be worth now?

HIGHGATE might now be worth an estimated £313,702.

This is based on house price inflation of 8.2%, between November 2023 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the West Devon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 8.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HIGHGATE of £290,000 on 30th November 2023. For the value to have increased from £290,000 to £313,702 over the two years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HIGHGATE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the West Devon local authority area.
• The November 2023 sale price of £290,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HIGHGATE has not materially changed since November 2023.
