LILAC COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Waverley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LILAC COTTAGE sales from January 2018 and April 2023 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 January 2018 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the April 2023 sale, where it rises to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.

What might LILAC COTTAGE be worth now?

LILAC COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £644,298.

This is based on house price inflation of 0.7%, between April 2023 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Waverley local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 0.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LILAC COTTAGE of £640,000 on 21st April 2023. For the value to have increased from £640,000 to £644,298 over the four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LILAC COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Waverley local authority area.
• The April 2023 sale price of £640,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
