ROCK COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Herefordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four ROCK COTTAGE sales between April 1996 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 May 2006 sale was for 38% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% above the HPI over time, until the August 2017 sale, where it falls to 25% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% above the HPI.

What might ROCK COTTAGE be worth now?

ROCK COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £554,840.

This is based on house price inflation of 33.7%, between August 2017 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Herefordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 33.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ROCK COTTAGE of £415,000 on 18th August 2017. For the value to have increased from £415,000 to £554,840 over the eight years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ROCK COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Herefordshire local authority area.
• The August 2017 sale price of £415,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ROCK COTTAGE has not materially changed since August 2017.
