SOUTH COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Horsham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SOUTH COTTAGE sales from August 2005 and August 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 August 2005 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the August 2016 sale, where it rises to 37% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 37% above the HPI.

What might SOUTH COTTAGE be worth now?

SOUTH COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £623,022.

This is based on house price inflation of 21%, between August 2016 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Horsham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 21% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SOUTH COTTAGE of £515,000 on 24th August 2016. For the value to have increased from £515,000 to £623,022 over the nine years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SOUTH COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Horsham local authority area.
• The August 2016 sale price of £515,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of SOUTH COTTAGE has not materially changed since August 2016.
