The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bournemouth Christchurch and Poole local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 FORTON CLOSE sales between December 2003 and February 2020 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 April 2011 sale was for 11% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% below the HPI over time, until the February 2020 sale, where it falls to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.
8 FORTON CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £465,421.
