22 BIRCH WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 22 BIRCH WAY sales from December 2005 and August 2018 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 December 2005 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the August 2018 sale, where it falls to 6% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 6% below the HPI.

What might 22 BIRCH WAY be worth now?

22 BIRCH WAY might now be worth an estimated £499,095.

This is based on house price inflation of 18.8%, between August 2018 and February 2025, for 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 18.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 22 BIRCH WAY of £420,000 on 2nd August 2018. For the value to have increased from £420,000 to £499,095 over the seven years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The August 2018 sale price of £420,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
