RYE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wychavon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four RYE COTTAGE sales between June 1997 and August 2011 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 November 2007 sale was for 22% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% above the HPI over time, until the August 2011 sale, where it rises to 27% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% above the HPI.

What might RYE COTTAGE be worth now?

RYE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £592,371.

This is based on house price inflation of 52.9%, between August 2011 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Wychavon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 52.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for RYE COTTAGE of £387,500 on 12th August 2011. For the value to have increased from £387,500 to £592,371 over the fourteen years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of RYE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wychavon local authority area.
• The August 2011 sale price of £387,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of RYE COTTAGE has not materially changed since August 2011.
