RAINBOWS END Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bath and North East Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two RAINBOWS END sales from September 2015 and July 2019 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 130% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 130% above the HPI over time, until the July 2019 sale, which was also at 130% above the HPI.

What might RAINBOWS END be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 28%, between July 2019 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Bath and North East Somerset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 28% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for RAINBOWS END of £1,275,000 on 2nd July 2019. For the value to have increased from £1,275,000 to £1,632,494 over the four years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
