FOREST VIEW Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Forest of Dean local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four FOREST VIEW sales between March 1995 and December 2024 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 July 2021 sale was for 18% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% above the HPI over time, until the December 2024 sale, where it rises to 45% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 45% above the HPI.

What might FOREST VIEW be worth now?

FOREST VIEW might now be worth an estimated £587,281.

This is based on house price inflation of 7.3%, between December 2024 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Forest of Dean local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 7.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for FOREST VIEW of £547,500 on 2nd December 2024. For the value to have increased from £547,500 to £587,281 over the one year and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FOREST VIEW has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Forest of Dean local authority area.
• The December 2024 sale price of £547,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of FOREST VIEW has not materially changed since December 2024.
