MILL COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Rother local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two MILL COTTAGE sales from November 2008 and March 2014 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 November 2008 sale was for 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the March 2014 sale, where it rises to 38% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% above the HPI.

What might MILL COTTAGE be worth now?

MILL COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £513,616.

This is based on house price inflation of 77.1%, between March 2014 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Rother local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 77.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MILL COTTAGE of £290,000 on 26th March 2014. For the value to have increased from £290,000 to £513,616 over the nine years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MILL COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Rother local authority area.
• The March 2014 sale price of £290,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MILL COTTAGE has not materially changed since March 2014.
