1 OLD FURNACE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Forest of Dean local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 OLD FURNACE CLOSE sales from October 1999 and June 2015 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 1999 sale was for 48% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 48% above the HPI over time, until the June 2015 sale, where it falls to 46% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 46% above the HPI.

What might 1 OLD FURNACE CLOSE be worth now?

The 69.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 OLD FURNACE CLOSE of £225,000 on 26th June 2015. For the value to have increased from £225,000 to £381,165 over the ten years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
