TOBYS COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the North Yorkshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three TOBYS COTTAGE sales between January 1995 and February 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 January 2017 sale was for 88% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 88% above the HPI over time, until the February 2024 sale, where it rises to 92% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 92% above the HPI.

What might TOBYS COTTAGE be worth now?

The 4.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for TOBYS COTTAGE of £495,000 on 19th February 2024. For the value to have increased from £495,000 to £515,884 over the one year to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of TOBYS COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the North Yorkshire local authority area.
• The February 2024 sale price of £495,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
