25 FORGE LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Newport local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 25 FORGE LANE sales from September 1996 and September 2002 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 September 1996 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the September 2002 sale, where it falls to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.

What might 25 FORGE LANE be worth now?

25 FORGE LANE might now be worth an estimated £385,037.

This is based on house price inflation of 177%, between September 2002 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Newport local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 177% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 25 FORGE LANE of £139,000 on 20th September 2002. For the value to have increased from £139,000 to £385,037 over the 23 years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 25 FORGE LANE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Newport local authority area.
• The September 2002 sale price of £139,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
