8 THE ACORNS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 8 THE ACORNS sales between July 1998 and August 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 2012 sale was for 40% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% above the HPI over time, until the August 2020 sale, which was also at 40% above the HPI.

What might 8 THE ACORNS be worth now?

8 THE ACORNS might now be worth an estimated £741,211.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.5%, between August 2020 and February 2025, for 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 21.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 THE ACORNS of £610,000 on 12th August 2020. For the value to have increased from £610,000 to £741,211 over the five years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 THE ACORNS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The August 2020 sale price of £610,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 8 THE ACORNS has not materially changed since August 2020.
