THE QUEST Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bassetlaw local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE QUEST sales between July 1998 and July 2019 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 2005 sale was for 22% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% above the HPI over time, until the July 2019 sale, where it rises to 59% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 59% above the HPI.

What might THE QUEST be worth now?

THE QUEST might now be worth an estimated £497,510.

This is based on house price inflation of 38.2%, between July 2019 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Bassetlaw local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 38.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE QUEST of £360,000 on 19th July 2019. For the value to have increased from £360,000 to £497,510 over the six years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE QUEST has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Bassetlaw local authority area.
• The July 2019 sale price of £360,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE QUEST has not materially changed since July 2019.
