FORGE HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Rother local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three FORGE HOUSE sales between September 2002 and January 2014 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 October 2003 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the January 2014 sale, where it rises to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.

What might FORGE HOUSE be worth now?

FORGE HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £544,330.

This is based on house price inflation of 70.1%, between January 2014 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Rother local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 70.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for FORGE HOUSE of £320,000 on 23rd January 2014. For the value to have increased from £320,000 to £544,330 over the ten years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FORGE HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Rother local authority area.
• The January 2014 sale price of £320,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of FORGE HOUSE has not materially changed since January 2014.
