LITTLE HALE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LITTLE HALE sales from April 1996 and April 2018 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 1996 sale was for 23% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% above the HPI over time, until the April 2018 sale, where it rises to 31% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% above the HPI.

What might LITTLE HALE be worth now?

LITTLE HALE might now be worth an estimated £570,304.

This is based on house price inflation of 25.3%, between April 2018 and February 2025, for 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 25.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LITTLE HALE of £455,000 on 16th April 2018. For the value to have increased from £455,000 to £570,304 over the seven years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LITTLE HALE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Torbay local authority area.
• The April 2018 sale price of £455,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LITTLE HALE has not materially changed since April 2018.
