8 OLD FORGE ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Buckinghamshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 8 OLD FORGE ROAD sales between July 1997 and November 2023 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 2015 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the November 2023 sale, where it rises to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.

What might 8 OLD FORGE ROAD be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 1.6%, between November 2023 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Buckinghamshire local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 OLD FORGE ROAD of £545,000 on 15th November 2023. For the value to have increased from £545,000 to £553,608 over the two years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 OLD FORGE ROAD has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Buckinghamshire local authority area.
• The November 2023 sale price of £545,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
