BIRCH HOUSE 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 two BIRCH HOUSE sales from March 2008 and November 2015 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 March 2008 sale was for 4% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% above the HPI over time, until the November 2015 sale, where it falls to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.

What might BIRCH HOUSE be worth now?

BIRCH HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £505,165.

This is based on house price inflation of 34.7%, between November 2015 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 34.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BIRCH HOUSE of £375,000 on 18th November 2015. For the value to have increased from £375,000 to £505,165 over the ten years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BIRCH HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The November 2015 sale price of £375,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BIRCH HOUSE has not materially changed since November 2015.
