PIPERS BENCH Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dacorum local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two PIPERS BENCH sales from December 2015 and June 2020 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 December 2015 sale was for 53% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 53% above the HPI over time, until the June 2020 sale, where it falls to 39% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% above the HPI.

What might PIPERS BENCH be worth now?

PIPERS BENCH might now be worth an estimated £1,265,203.

This is based on house price inflation of 16.6%, between June 2020 and June 2025, for detached houses, in the Dacorum local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 16.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for PIPERS BENCH of £1,085,000 on 18th June 2020. For the value to have increased from £1,085,000 to £1,265,203 over the five years to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of PIPERS BENCH has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dacorum local authority area.
• The June 2020 sale price of £1,085,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of PIPERS BENCH has not materially changed since June 2020.
