THE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wychavon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five THE COTTAGE sales between October 1995 and October 2020 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 May 2015 sale was for 21% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% above the HPI over time, until the October 2020 sale, where it falls to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.

What might THE COTTAGE be worth now?

THE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £443,038.

This is based on house price inflation of 15.1%, between October 2020 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Wychavon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 15.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE COTTAGE of £385,000 on 9th October 2020. For the value to have increased from £385,000 to £443,038 over the five years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wychavon local authority area.
• The October 2020 sale price of £385,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE COTTAGE has not materially changed since October 2020.
