ORCHARD COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two ORCHARD COTTAGE sales from September 2015 and June 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 September 2015 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the June 2018 sale, where it rises to 11% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% below the HPI.

What might ORCHARD COTTAGE be worth now?

ORCHARD COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £255,285.

This is based on house price inflation of 34.4%, between June 2018 and December 2024, for semi-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 34.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ORCHARD COTTAGE of £189,950 on 29th June 2018. For the value to have increased from £189,950 to £255,285 over the five years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ORCHARD COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Torbay local authority area.
• The June 2018 sale price of £189,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ORCHARD COTTAGE has not materially changed since June 2018.
