WHINSTAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the West Oxfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WHINSTAY sales from April 1996 and April 2012 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 April 1996 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the April 2012 sale, where it rises to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.

What might WHINSTAY be worth now?

WHINSTAY might now be worth an estimated £525,334.

This is based on house price inflation of 67.8%, between April 2012 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the West Oxfordshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 67.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WHINSTAY of £313,000 on 20th April 2012. For the value to have increased from £313,000 to £525,334 over the thirteen years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WHINSTAY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Oxfordshire local authority area.
• The April 2012 sale price of £313,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WHINSTAY has not materially changed since April 2012.
