Land registry data shows two sales for 1 LONGDOWN since 1st January 1995. The below table shows the price paid for the two sales, along with the average detached price in the Dorset local authority area for the corresponding sale date. Both of the two 1 LONGDOWN sales were for below the average price. The average price is sourced from the Office for National Statistics' House Price Index (HPI).
Date | Price | HPI Price | Variation from HPI |
---|---|---|---|
2012 1 MAR | £220,000 | £311,232 | 29% below HPI |
1996 14 OCT | £28,620 | £98,517 | 71% below HPI |
The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 LONGDOWN sales from October 1996 and March 2012 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 October 1996 sale was for 71% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 71% below the HPI over time, until the March 2012 sale, where it rises to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.
