VINE TREE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two VINE TREE COTTAGE sales from March 2020 and October 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 March 2020 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the October 2023 sale, where it rises to 4% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% above the HPI.

What might VINE TREE COTTAGE be worth now?

The 0% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for VINE TREE COTTAGE of £477,500 on 25th October 2023. For the value to have increased from £477,500 to £477,500 over the two years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
