16 THE SQUIRRELS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Forest of Dean local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 16 THE SQUIRRELS sales between December 2007 and November 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 August 2012 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the November 2015 sale, where it falls to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.

What might 16 THE SQUIRRELS be worth now?

16 THE SQUIRRELS might now be worth an estimated £368,905.

This is based on house price inflation of 46.4%, between November 2015 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Forest of Dean local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 46.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 THE SQUIRRELS of £252,000 on 6th November 2015. For the value to have increased from £252,000 to £368,905 over the eight years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 16 THE SQUIRRELS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Forest of Dean local authority area.
• The November 2015 sale price of £252,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 16 THE SQUIRRELS has not materially changed since November 2015.
