THE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Buckinghamshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE COTTAGE sales between May 1999 and October 2024 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 December 2003 sale was for 26% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% above the HPI over time, until the October 2024 sale, where it rises to 39% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% above the HPI.

What might THE COTTAGE be worth now?

THE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £1,176,984.

This is based on house price deflation of 1.7%, between October 2024 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Buckinghamshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1.7% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for THE COTTAGE of £1,197,500 on 10th October 2024. For the value to have decreased from £1,197,500 to £1,176,984 over the one year 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 Buckinghamshire local authority area.
• The October 2024 sale price of £1,197,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE COTTAGE has not materially changed since October 2024.
