THE OLD POST OFFICE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the East Lindsey local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE OLD POST OFFICE sales between April 1996 and August 2006 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 2003 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the August 2006 sale, where it rises to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.

What might THE OLD POST OFFICE be worth now?

THE OLD POST OFFICE might now be worth an estimated £203,372.

This is based on house price inflation of 58.9%, between August 2006 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the East Lindsey local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 58.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE OLD POST OFFICE of £128,000 on 15th August 2006. For the value to have increased from £128,000 to £203,372 over the nineteen years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE OLD POST OFFICE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the East Lindsey local authority area.
• The August 2006 sale price of £128,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE OLD POST OFFICE has not materially changed since August 2006.
