CROFT COTTAGE 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 five CROFT COTTAGE sales between August 1995 and October 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 January 2010 sale was for 54% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 54% below the HPI over time, until the October 2020 sale, where it falls to 63% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 63% below the HPI.

What might CROFT COTTAGE be worth now?

CROFT COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £196,831.

This is based on house price inflation of 18.6%, between October 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 18.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for CROFT COTTAGE of £166,000 on 15th October 2020. For the value to have increased from £166,000 to £196,831 over the five years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of CROFT COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The October 2020 sale price of £166,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of CROFT COTTAGE has not materially changed since October 2020.
