SUN COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Lancashire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SUN COTTAGE sales from February 2007 and February 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 February 2007 sale was for 73% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 73% above the HPI over time, until the February 2016 sale, where it rises to 81% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 81% above the HPI.

What might SUN COTTAGE be worth now?

SUN COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £658,767.

This is based on house price inflation of 37.2%, between February 2016 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the West Lancashire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 37.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SUN COTTAGE of £480,000 on 11th February 2016. For the value to have increased from £480,000 to £658,767 over the nine years to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SUN COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Lancashire local authority area.
• The February 2016 sale price of £480,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of SUN COTTAGE has not materially changed since February 2016.
