HOME FARM 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 HOME FARM sales from May 2001 and September 2007 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 2001 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the September 2007 sale, where it rises to 100% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 100% above the HPI.

What might HOME FARM be worth now?

HOME FARM might now be worth an estimated £1,057,156.

This is based on house price inflation of 53.2%, between September 2007 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 53.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HOME FARM of £690,000 on 26th September 2007. For the value to have increased from £690,000 to £1,057,156 over the eighteen years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HOME FARM has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The September 2007 sale price of £690,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HOME FARM has not materially changed since September 2007.
