THE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mole Valley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE COTTAGE sales from October 2008 and October 2013 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 October 2008 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the October 2013 sale, where it rises to 11% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 11% above the HPI.

What might THE COTTAGE be worth now?

THE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £1,066,128.

This is based on house price inflation of 45.5%, between October 2013 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Mole Valley local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 45.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE COTTAGE of £732,500 on 31st October 2013. For the value to have increased from £732,500 to £1,066,128 over the ten years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Mole Valley local authority area.
• The October 2013 sale price of £732,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE COTTAGE has not materially changed since October 2013.
