THIMBLE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Stafford local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THIMBLE COTTAGE sales from May 2004 and August 2007 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 2004 sale was for 24% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 24% below the HPI over time, until the August 2007 sale, where it rises to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.

What might THIMBLE COTTAGE be worth now?

THIMBLE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £220,730.

This is based on house price inflation of 48.2%, between August 2007 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Stafford local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 48.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THIMBLE COTTAGE of £148,950 on 29th August 2007. For the value to have increased from £148,950 to £220,730 over the sixteen years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THIMBLE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Stafford local authority area.
• The August 2007 sale price of £148,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THIMBLE COTTAGE has not materially changed since August 2007.
