TOR COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four TOR COTTAGE sales between April 2005 and December 2023 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 2021 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the December 2023 sale, where it falls to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.

What might TOR COTTAGE be worth now?

TOR COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £318,425.

This is based on house price inflation of 4.4%, between December 2023 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the West Devon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 4.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for TOR COTTAGE of £305,000 on 1st December 2023. For the value to have increased from £305,000 to £318,425 over the one year to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of TOR COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Devon local authority area.
• The December 2023 sale price of £305,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of TOR COTTAGE has not materially changed since December 2023.
