HOPE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wealden local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HOPE COTTAGE sales from November 2003 and January 2015 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 November 2003 sale was for 20% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% above the HPI over time, until the January 2015 sale, where it rises to 47% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 47% above the HPI.

What might HOPE COTTAGE be worth now?

HOPE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £886,274.

This is based on house price inflation of 45.3%, between January 2015 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Wealden local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 45.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HOPE COTTAGE of £610,000 on 30th January 2015. For the value to have increased from £610,000 to £886,274 over the nine years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HOPE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wealden local authority area.
• The January 2015 sale price of £610,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HOPE COTTAGE has not materially changed since January 2015.
