The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 FOREHILL CLOSE sales from October 2016 and September 2021 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 2016 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the September 2021 sale, where it rises to 20% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% above the HPI.
8 FOREHILL CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £403,590.
This is based on house price inflation of 12%, between September 2021 and December 2024, for semi-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 12% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 FOREHILL CLOSE of £360,250 on 24th September 2021. For the value to have increased from £360,250 to £403,590 over the two years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
