RUYTON COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two RUYTON COTTAGE sales from October 2006 and January 2008 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 October 2006 sale was for 33% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% above the HPI over time, until the January 2008 sale, where it falls to 31% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% above the HPI.

What might RUYTON COTTAGE be worth now?

RUYTON COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £339,451.

This is based on house price inflation of 55.7%, between January 2008 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 55.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for RUYTON COTTAGE of £218,000 on 4th January 2008. For the value to have increased from £218,000 to £339,451 over the fifteen years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of RUYTON COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area.
• The January 2008 sale price of £218,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
