THE WILLOWS 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 WILLOWS sales between May 2009 and May 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 April 2017 sale was for 17% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% above the HPI over time, until the May 2024 sale, where it falls to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.

What might THE WILLOWS be worth now?

THE WILLOWS might now be worth an estimated £288,148.

This is based on house price deflation of 0.6%, between May 2024 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 0.6% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for THE WILLOWS of £290,000 on 22nd May 2024. For the value to have decreased from £290,000 to £288,148 over the one year and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE WILLOWS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Boston local authority area.
• The May 2024 sale price of £290,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE WILLOWS has not materially changed since May 2024.
