ROSE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Boston local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four ROSE COTTAGE sales between September 2006 and November 2021 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 2018 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the November 2021 sale, where it rises to 16% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% above the HPI.

What might ROSE COTTAGE be worth now?

ROSE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £292,266.

This is based on house price inflation of 4.8%, between November 2021 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Boston local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 4.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ROSE COTTAGE of £279,000 on 26th November 2021. For the value to have increased from £279,000 to £292,266 over the two years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ROSE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Boston local authority area.
• The November 2021 sale price of £279,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ROSE COTTAGE has not materially changed since November 2021.
