HILLCREST Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HILLCREST sales from May 1995 and February 2018 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 May 1995 sale was for 71% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 71% below the HPI over time, until the February 2018 sale, where it rises to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.

What might HILLCREST be worth now?

HILLCREST might now be worth an estimated £452,028.

This is based on house price inflation of 29.2%, between February 2018 and December 2024, for 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 29.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HILLCREST of £350,000 on 2nd February 2018. For the value to have increased from £350,000 to £452,028 over the five years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HILLCREST has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Devon local authority area.
• The February 2018 sale price of £350,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HILLCREST has not materially changed since February 2018.
