4 FOREST 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 4 FOREST WAY sales between December 2000 and November 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 October 2003 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the November 2017 sale, which was also at 6% below the HPI.

What might 4 FOREST WAY be worth now?

4 FOREST WAY might now be worth an estimated £495,109.

This is based on house price inflation of 20%, between November 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 20% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 FOREST WAY of £412,500 on 10th November 2017. For the value to have increased from £412,500 to £495,109 over the eight years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 FOREST WAY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The November 2017 sale price of £412,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 4 FOREST WAY has not materially changed since November 2017.
