OAK COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Guildford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two OAK COTTAGE sales from February 1995 and August 1998 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 February 1995 sale was for 30% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% above the HPI over time, until the August 1998 sale, where it falls to 21% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% above the HPI.

What might OAK COTTAGE be worth now?

OAK COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £626,350.

This is based on house price inflation of 332%, between August 1998 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Guildford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 332% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for OAK COTTAGE of £145,000 on 17th August 1998. For the value to have increased from £145,000 to £626,350 over the 27 years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of OAK COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Guildford local authority area.
• The August 1998 sale price of £145,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of OAK COTTAGE has not materially changed since August 1998.
