RIVINGTON Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cornwall local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two RIVINGTON sales from March 1996 and April 2014 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 March 1996 sale was for 44% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% below the HPI over time, until the April 2014 sale, where it falls to 54% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 54% below the HPI.

What might RIVINGTON be worth now?

RIVINGTON might now be worth an estimated £205,178.

This is based on house price inflation of 55.4%, between April 2014 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Cornwall local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 55.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for RIVINGTON of £132,000 on 22nd April 2014. For the value to have increased from £132,000 to £205,178 over the nine years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of RIVINGTON has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cornwall local authority area.
• The April 2014 sale price of £132,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of RIVINGTON has not materially changed since April 2014.
