TAU COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wealden local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two TAU COTTAGE sales from June 2000 and March 2022 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 June 2000 sale was for 22% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% above the HPI over time, until the March 2022 sale, where it rises to 40% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% above the HPI.

What might TAU COTTAGE be worth now?

TAU COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £848,373.

This is based on house price inflation of 2.8%, between March 2022 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Wealden local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 2.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for TAU COTTAGE of £825,000 on 11th March 2022. For the value to have increased from £825,000 to £848,373 over the three years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of TAU COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wealden local authority area.
• The March 2022 sale price of £825,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of TAU COTTAGE has not materially changed since March 2022.
