16 HERON DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The six 16 HERON DRIVE sales between March 2000 and August 2016 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 2015 sale was for 2% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% below the HPI over time, until the August 2016 sale, where it rises to 9% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 9% above the HPI.

What might 16 HERON DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 35.5%, between August 2016 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Dorset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 35.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 HERON DRIVE of £270,000 on 5th August 2016. For the value to have increased from £270,000 to £365,938 over the seven years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 16 HERON DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The August 2016 sale price of £270,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
