FRUIT TREE COTTAGE 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 two FRUIT TREE COTTAGE sales from May 1998 and January 2015 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 May 1998 sale was for 26% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% above the HPI over time, until the January 2015 sale, where it falls to 15% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% above the HPI.

What might FRUIT TREE COTTAGE be worth now?

FRUIT TREE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £466,000.

This is based on house price inflation of 65.2%, between January 2015 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 65.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for FRUIT TREE COTTAGE of £282,000 on 16th January 2015. For the value to have increased from £282,000 to £466,000 over the nine years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FRUIT TREE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Forest of Dean local authority area.
• The January 2015 sale price of £282,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
