AURORA Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two AURORA sales from July 2001 and December 2008 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 2001 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the December 2008 sale, where it falls to 8% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% below the HPI.

What might AURORA be worth now?

AURORA might now be worth an estimated £387,540.

This is based on house price inflation of 61.5%, between December 2008 and May 2026, for detached houses, in the North Devon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 61.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for AURORA of £240,000 on 3rd December 2008. For the value to have increased from £240,000 to £387,540 over the eighteen years and seven months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of AURORA has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the North Devon local authority area.
• The December 2008 sale price of £240,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of AURORA has not materially changed since December 2008.
