THE CROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Boston local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE CROFT sales between February 2004 and April 2015 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 November 2009 sale was for 62% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 62% above the HPI over time, until the April 2015 sale, where it rises to 67% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 67% above the HPI.

What might THE CROFT be worth now?

THE CROFT might now be worth an estimated £424,671.

This is based on house price inflation of 44%, between April 2015 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Boston local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 44% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE CROFT of £295,000 on 15th April 2015. For the value to have increased from £295,000 to £424,671 over the ten years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE CROFT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Boston local authority area.
• The April 2015 sale price of £295,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE CROFT has not materially changed since April 2015.
