18 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 two 18 THE SQUIRRELS sales from April 2008 and December 2017 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 April 2008 sale was for 11% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% below the HPI over time, until the December 2017 sale, where it rises to 10% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% below the HPI.

What might 18 THE SQUIRRELS be worth now?

18 THE SQUIRRELS might now be worth an estimated £342,869.

This is based on house price inflation of 34.5%, between December 2017 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 34.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 THE SQUIRRELS of £255,000 on 15th December 2017. For the value to have increased from £255,000 to £342,869 over the seven years to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The December 2017 sale price of £255,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
