HIGHVIEW Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Epping Forest local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four HIGHVIEW sales between October 1997 and January 2020 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 September 2015 sale was for 55% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 55% below the HPI over time, until the January 2020 sale, where it rises to 46% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% below the HPI.

What might HIGHVIEW be worth now?

HIGHVIEW might now be worth an estimated £535,922.

This is based on house price inflation of 12.2%, between January 2020 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Epping Forest local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 12.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HIGHVIEW of £477,500 on 10th January 2020. For the value to have increased from £477,500 to £535,922 over the three years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HIGHVIEW has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Epping Forest local authority area.
• The January 2020 sale price of £477,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HIGHVIEW has not materially changed since January 2020.
