CARISTEM 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 CARISTEM HOUSE sales from April 2000 and August 2012 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 2000 sale was for 82% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 82% above the HPI over time, until the August 2012 sale, where it falls to 57% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 57% above the HPI.

What might CARISTEM HOUSE be worth now?

CARISTEM HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £817,966.

This is based on house price inflation of 57.3%, between August 2012 and December 2024, 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 57.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CARISTEM HOUSE of £520,000 on 16th August 2012. For the value to have increased from £520,000 to £817,966 over the eleven years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CARISTEM HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The August 2012 sale price of £520,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of CARISTEM HOUSE has not materially changed since August 2012.
