8 MINERVA WALK 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 two 8 MINERVA WALK sales from September 1995 and October 1999 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 September 1995 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the October 1999 sale, where it falls to 25% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 25% below the HPI.

What might 8 MINERVA WALK be worth now?

8 MINERVA WALK might now be worth an estimated £285,349.

This is based on house price inflation of 280.5%, between October 1999 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 280.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 MINERVA WALK of £75,000 on 6th October 1999. For the value to have increased from £75,000 to £285,349 over the 24 years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The October 1999 sale price of £75,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
