HILLCREST Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three HILLCREST sales between January 1999 and May 2022 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 April 2018 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the May 2022 sale, where it rises to 79% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 79% above the HPI.

What might HILLCREST be worth now?

HILLCREST might now be worth an estimated £826,104.

This is based on house price inflation of 3.3%, between May 2022 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Somerset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 3.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HILLCREST of £800,000 on 18th May 2022. For the value to have increased from £800,000 to £826,104 over the three years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HILLCREST has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Somerset local authority area.
• The May 2022 sale price of £800,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HILLCREST has not materially changed since May 2022.
