WOLVERTON Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three WOLVERTON sales between September 2002 and September 2007 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 July 2005 sale was for 27% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 27% above the HPI over time, until the September 2007 sale, where it rises to 159% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 159% above the HPI.

What might WOLVERTON be worth now?

WOLVERTON might now be worth an estimated £1,127,315.

This is based on house price inflation of 47.9%, between September 2007 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Torbay local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 47.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WOLVERTON of £762,000 on 14th September 2007. For the value to have increased from £762,000 to £1,127,315 over the eighteen years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WOLVERTON has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Torbay local authority area.
• The September 2007 sale price of £762,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WOLVERTON has not materially changed since September 2007.
