RODINGS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sevenoaks local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two RODINGS sales from February 1995 and October 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 February 1995 sale was for 83% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 83% below the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it rises to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.

What might RODINGS be worth now?

RODINGS might now be worth an estimated £788,426.

This is based on house price inflation of 43.4%, between October 2014 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Sevenoaks local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 43.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for RODINGS of £550,000 on 3rd October 2014. For the value to have increased from £550,000 to £788,426 over the nine years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of RODINGS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Sevenoaks local authority area.
• The October 2014 sale price of £550,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of RODINGS has not materially changed since October 2014.
