4 MICHAELS WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the New Forest local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 MICHAELS WAY sales from March 2004 and October 2009 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 March 2004 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the October 2009 sale, where it rises to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.

What might 4 MICHAELS WAY be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 73.7%, between October 2009 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the New Forest local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 73.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 MICHAELS WAY of £249,000 on 22nd October 2009. For the value to have increased from £249,000 to £432,548 over the fourteen years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
