RECTORY COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cherwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two RECTORY COTTAGE sales from August 2010 and August 2017 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 August 2010 sale was for 34% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% above the HPI over time, until the August 2017 sale, where it falls to 21% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% above the HPI.

What might RECTORY COTTAGE be worth now?

RECTORY COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £706,977.

This is based on house price inflation of 24%, between August 2017 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Cherwell local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 24% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for RECTORY COTTAGE of £570,000 on 1st August 2017. For the value to have increased from £570,000 to £706,977 over the six years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of RECTORY COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cherwell local authority area.
• The August 2017 sale price of £570,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of RECTORY COTTAGE has not materially changed since August 2017.
