ELM 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 ELM HOUSE sales from January 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 1995 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the October 2020 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.

What might ELM HOUSE be worth now?

ELM HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £391,290.

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 ELM HOUSE of £330,000 on 30th October 2020. For the value to have increased from £330,000 to £391,290 over the five years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ELM HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The October 2020 sale price of £330,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ELM HOUSE has not materially changed since October 2020.
