SIGNAL COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Northumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three SIGNAL COTTAGE sales between November 2003 and March 2016 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 2003 sale was for 78% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 78% below the HPI over time, until the March 2016 sale, where it rises to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.

What might SIGNAL COTTAGE be worth now?

SIGNAL COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £311,533.

This is based on house price inflation of 41.4%, between March 2016 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Northumberland local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 41.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SIGNAL COTTAGE of £220,250 on 17th March 2016. For the value to have increased from £220,250 to £311,533 over the seven years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SIGNAL COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Northumberland local authority area.
• The March 2016 sale price of £220,250 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of SIGNAL COTTAGE has not materially changed since March 2016.
