6 FIR CLOSE 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 6 FIR CLOSE sales from March 1995 and September 2001 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 1995 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the September 2001 sale, where it rises to 13% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% above the HPI.

What might 6 FIR CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 165.9%, between September 2001 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 165.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 6 FIR CLOSE of £247,500 on 28th September 2001. For the value to have increased from £247,500 to £658,022 over the 22 years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
