VIRGINIA COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Shropshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three VIRGINIA COTTAGE sales between April 2008 and July 2020 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 2017 sale was for 74% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 74% above the HPI over time, until the July 2020 sale, where it falls to 65% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 65% above the HPI.

What might VIRGINIA COTTAGE be worth now?

VIRGINIA COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £687,921.

This is based on house price inflation of 29.8%, between July 2020 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Shropshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 29.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for VIRGINIA COTTAGE of £530,000 on 17th July 2020. For the value to have increased from £530,000 to £687,921 over the five years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of VIRGINIA COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Shropshire local authority area.
• The July 2020 sale price of £530,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of VIRGINIA COTTAGE has not materially changed since July 2020.
