ANVIL COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the New Forest local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two ANVIL COTTAGE sales from August 2009 and May 2018 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 August 2009 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the May 2018 sale, where it rises to 15% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% above the HPI.

What might ANVIL COTTAGE be worth now?

ANVIL COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £671,758.

This is based on house price inflation of 14.8%, between May 2018 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the New Forest local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 14.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ANVIL COTTAGE of £585,000 on 21st May 2018. For the value to have increased from £585,000 to £671,758 over the five years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ANVIL COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the New Forest local authority area.
• The May 2018 sale price of £585,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ANVIL COTTAGE has not materially changed since May 2018.
