3 LAUREL 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 three 3 LAUREL WAY sales between June 2006 and August 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 February 2016 sale was for 34% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% above the HPI over time, until the August 2017 sale, where it falls to 28% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% above the HPI.

What might 3 LAUREL WAY be worth now?

3 LAUREL WAY might now be worth an estimated £676,109.

This is based on house price inflation of 22.9%, between August 2017 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 22.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 LAUREL WAY of £550,000 on 1st August 2017. For the value to have increased from £550,000 to £676,109 over the eight years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 LAUREL WAY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The August 2017 sale price of £550,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 3 LAUREL WAY has not materially changed since August 2017.
