LAMBS COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Thanet local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LAMBS COTTAGE sales from May 2001 and July 2009 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 2001 sale was for 6% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% above the HPI over time, until the July 2009 sale, where it rises to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.

What might LAMBS COTTAGE be worth now?

LAMBS COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £528,790.

This is based on house price inflation of 111.5%, between July 2009 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Thanet local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 111.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LAMBS COTTAGE of £250,000 on 31st July 2009. For the value to have increased from £250,000 to £528,790 over the sixteen years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LAMBS COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Thanet local authority area.
• The July 2009 sale price of £250,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LAMBS COTTAGE has not materially changed since July 2009.
