LITTLE SPINNEY 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 SPINNEY sales from May 2000 and July 2017 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 2000 sale was for 30% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% above the HPI over time, until the July 2017 sale, where it rises to 41% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% above the HPI.

What might LITTLE SPINNEY be worth now?

LITTLE SPINNEY might now be worth an estimated £613,559.

This is based on house price inflation of 33.4%, between July 2017 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 33.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LITTLE SPINNEY of £460,000 on 3rd July 2017. For the value to have increased from £460,000 to £613,559 over the eight years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LITTLE SPINNEY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Torbay local authority area.
• The July 2017 sale price of £460,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LITTLE SPINNEY has not materially changed since July 2017.
