ORCHARD HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three ORCHARD HOUSE sales between May 1997 and August 2022 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 2017 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the August 2022 sale, where it rises to 21% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% above the HPI.

What might ORCHARD HOUSE be worth now?

ORCHARD HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £524,147.

This is based on house price deflation of 4.7%, between August 2022 and February 2025, for 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 4.7% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for ORCHARD HOUSE of £550,000 on 5th August 2022. For the value to have decreased from £550,000 to £524,147 over the three years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ORCHARD HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Torbay local authority area.
• The August 2022 sale price of £550,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ORCHARD HOUSE has not materially changed since August 2022.
