4 LORNE ROAD 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 four 4 LORNE ROAD sales between February 1995 and October 2022 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 2016 sale was for 21% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 21% below the HPI over time, until the October 2022 sale, where it rises to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might 4 LORNE ROAD be worth now?
