SEALAND Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SEALAND sales from March 2014 and January 2015 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 March 2014 sale was for 67% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 67% below the HPI over time, until the January 2015 sale, where it rises to 21% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 21% above the HPI.

What might SEALAND be worth now?

SEALAND might now be worth an estimated £552,615.

This is based on house price inflation of 51.4%, between January 2015 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Somerset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 51.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SEALAND of £365,000 on 16th January 2015. For the value to have increased from £365,000 to £552,615 over the eight years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SEALAND has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Somerset local authority area.
• The January 2015 sale price of £365,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of SEALAND has not materially changed since January 2015.
