6 FOREST EDGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Forest of Dean local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 6 FOREST EDGE sales between March 2008 and September 2014 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 July 2010 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the September 2014 sale, where it falls to 30% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% below the HPI.

What might 6 FOREST EDGE be worth now?

6 FOREST EDGE might now be worth an estimated £268,825.

This is based on house price inflation of 51%, between September 2014 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Forest of Dean local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 51% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 6 FOREST EDGE of £178,000 on 24th September 2014. For the value to have increased from £178,000 to £268,825 over the nine years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 6 FOREST EDGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Forest of Dean local authority area.
• The September 2014 sale price of £178,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
