NIL DESPERANDUM Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Basingstoke and Deane local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two NIL DESPERANDUM sales from April 2007 and March 2025 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 April 2007 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the March 2025 sale, where it falls to 1% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% below the HPI.

What might NIL DESPERANDUM be worth now?

NIL DESPERANDUM might now be worth an estimated £657,720.

This is based on house price inflation of 2.8%, between March 2025 and June 2025, for detached houses, in the Basingstoke and Deane local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 2.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for NIL DESPERANDUM of £640,000 on 13th March 2025. For the value to have increased from £640,000 to £657,720 over the nine months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of NIL DESPERANDUM has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Basingstoke and Deane local authority area.
• The March 2025 sale price of £640,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of NIL DESPERANDUM has not materially changed since March 2025.
