HILLCROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Shropshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HILLCROFT sales from November 1996 and November 2023 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 November 1996 sale was for 35% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% above the HPI over time, until the November 2023 sale, where it rises to 56% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 56% above the HPI.

What might HILLCROFT be worth now?

HILLCROFT might now be worth an estimated £656,963.

This is based on house price inflation of 4.3%, between November 2023 and May 2026, for detached houses, in the Shropshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 4.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HILLCROFT of £630,000 on 24th November 2023. For the value to have increased from £630,000 to £656,963 over the three years and six months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HILLCROFT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Shropshire local authority area.
• The November 2023 sale price of £630,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HILLCROFT has not materially changed since November 2023.
