TAURANGA Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three TAURANGA sales between October 2004 and August 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 August 2010 sale was for 15% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% above the HPI over time, until the August 2022 sale, where it rises to 36% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% above the HPI.

What might TAURANGA be worth now?

TAURANGA might now be worth an estimated £580,944.

This is based on house price inflation of 7.6%, between August 2022 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 7.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for TAURANGA of £540,000 on 18th August 2022. For the value to have increased from £540,000 to £580,944 over the one year and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of TAURANGA has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cheshire West and Chester local authority area.
• The August 2022 sale price of £540,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of TAURANGA has not materially changed since August 2022.
