79 ORTON DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 79 ORTON DRIVE sales between September 1999 and March 2019 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 2017 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the March 2019 sale, where it rises to 8% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% above the HPI.

What might 79 ORTON DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 29%, between March 2019 and July 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 29% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 79 ORTON DRIVE of £275,000 on 1st March 2019. For the value to have increased from £275,000 to £354,628 over the six years and eight months to July 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 79 ORTON DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the East Cambridgeshire local authority area.
• The March 2019 sale price of £275,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
