HORSESHOE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The six HORSESHOE COTTAGE sales between April 1999 and September 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 May 2009 sale was for 11% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% below the HPI over time, until the September 2020 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.

What might HORSESHOE COTTAGE be worth now?

HORSESHOE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £209,795.

This is based on house price inflation of 23.4%, between September 2020 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Torbay local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 23.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HORSESHOE COTTAGE of £170,000 on 25th September 2020. For the value to have increased from £170,000 to £209,795 over the five years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HORSESHOE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Torbay local authority area.
• The September 2020 sale price of £170,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HORSESHOE COTTAGE has not materially changed since September 2020.
