SQUATTERS COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Shropshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SQUATTERS COTTAGE sales from August 1999 and June 2012 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 1999 sale was for 99% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 99% above the HPI over time, until the June 2012 sale, where it falls to 88% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 88% above the HPI.

What might SQUATTERS COTTAGE be worth now?

SQUATTERS COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £489,135.

This is based on house price inflation of 71.6%, between June 2012 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Shropshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 71.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SQUATTERS COTTAGE of £285,000 on 26th June 2012. For the value to have increased from £285,000 to £489,135 over the eleven years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SQUATTERS COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Shropshire local authority area.
• The June 2012 sale price of £285,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
