HOLLYCROFT 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 HOLLYCROFT sales from July 1996 and September 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 July 1996 sale was for 15% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% above the HPI over time, until the September 2014 sale, where it falls to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.

What might HOLLYCROFT be worth now?

HOLLYCROFT might now be worth an estimated £493,916.

This is based on house price inflation of 43.2%, between September 2014 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 43.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HOLLYCROFT of £345,000 on 19th September 2014. For the value to have increased from £345,000 to £493,916 over the eleven years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HOLLYCROFT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The September 2014 sale price of £345,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HOLLYCROFT has not materially changed since September 2014.
