RUNSELL OAST Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Ashford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four RUNSELL OAST sales between August 1996 and April 2018 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 1999 sale was for 112% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 112% above the HPI over time, until the April 2018 sale, where it falls to 85% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 85% above the HPI.

What might RUNSELL OAST be worth now?

RUNSELL OAST might now be worth an estimated £1,040,164.

This is based on house price inflation of 20.3%, between April 2018 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Ashford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 20.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for RUNSELL OAST of £865,000 on 6th April 2018. For the value to have increased from £865,000 to £1,040,164 over the seven years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of RUNSELL OAST has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Ashford local authority area.
• The April 2018 sale price of £865,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of RUNSELL OAST has not materially changed since April 2018.
