PRESTBURY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Vale of White Horse local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four PRESTBURY sales between December 1996 and March 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 April 2010 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the March 2018 sale, where it falls to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might PRESTBURY be worth now?

PRESTBURY might now be worth an estimated £527,964.

This is based on house price inflation of 20%, between March 2018 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Vale of White Horse local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 20% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for PRESTBURY of £440,000 on 2nd March 2018. For the value to have increased from £440,000 to £527,964 over the five years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of PRESTBURY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Vale of White Horse local authority area.
• The March 2018 sale price of £440,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of PRESTBURY has not materially changed since March 2018.
