WHISPERS 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 WHISPERS sales between October 1996 and October 2003 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 February 2002 sale was for 27% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% above the HPI over time, until the October 2003 sale, where it falls to 17% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% above the HPI.

What might WHISPERS be worth now?

WHISPERS might now be worth an estimated £535,010.

This is based on house price inflation of 98.2%, between October 2003 and February 2025, 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 98.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WHISPERS of £269,950 on 21st October 2003. For the value to have increased from £269,950 to £535,010 over the 22 years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

  • The value of WHISPERS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the West Devon local authority area.
  • The October 2003 sale price of £269,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
  • The size, condition, and specification of WHISPERS has not materially changed since October 2003.
Disclaimer: Please note that this is a theoretical estimate based on assumptions which may or may not be correct. It should not be relied on for any purpose.
