WINDLESTRAW Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Woking local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WINDLESTRAW sales from August 1999 and December 2018 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 August 1999 sale was for 61% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 61% below the HPI over time, until the December 2018 sale, where it rises to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.

What might WINDLESTRAW be worth now?

WINDLESTRAW might now be worth an estimated £616,352.

This is based on house price inflation of 11.1%, between December 2018 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Woking local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 11.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WINDLESTRAW of £555,000 on 5th December 2018. For the value to have increased from £555,000 to £616,352 over the six years to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WINDLESTRAW has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Woking local authority area.
• The December 2018 sale price of £555,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WINDLESTRAW has not materially changed since December 2018.
