FORTON LODGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the High Peak local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three FORTON LODGE sales between September 1997 and August 2006 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 March 2000 sale was for 126% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 126% above the HPI over time, until the August 2006 sale, where it falls to 109% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 109% above the HPI.

What might FORTON LODGE be worth now?

FORTON LODGE might now be worth an estimated £940,693.

This is based on house price inflation of 74.2%, between August 2006 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the High Peak local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 74.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for FORTON LODGE of £540,000 on 31st August 2006. For the value to have increased from £540,000 to £940,693 over the nineteen years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FORTON LODGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the High Peak local authority area.
• The August 2006 sale price of £540,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of FORTON LODGE has not materially changed since August 2006.
