NUT TREE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Three Rivers local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two NUT TREE COTTAGE sales from May 2002 and April 2012 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 2002 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the April 2012 sale, where it rises to 20% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% above the HPI.

What might NUT TREE COTTAGE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 68.4%, between April 2012 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Three Rivers local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 68.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for NUT TREE COTTAGE of £817,500 on 18th April 2012. For the value to have increased from £817,500 to £1,376,577 over the eleven years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
