LONGWOOD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Buckinghamshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two LONGWOOD sales from April 1996 and October 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 17% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% above the HPI over time, until the October 2018 sale, where it rises to 59% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 59% above the HPI.

What might LONGWOOD be worth now?

LONGWOOD might now be worth an estimated £1,347,652.

This is based on house price inflation of 12.3%, between October 2018 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Buckinghamshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 12.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LONGWOOD of £1,200,000 on 26th October 2018. For the value to have increased from £1,200,000 to £1,347,652 over the seven years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LONGWOOD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Buckinghamshire local authority area.
• The October 2018 sale price of £1,200,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LONGWOOD has not materially changed since October 2018.
