The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two JAY COTTAGE sales from September 2002 and November 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 September 2002 sale was for 93% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 93% above the HPI over time, until the November 2006 sale, where it falls to 76% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 76% above the HPI.
JAY COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £919,500.
This is based on house price inflation of 64.2%, between November 2006 and December 2024, 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 64.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for JAY COTTAGE of £560,000 on 10th November 2006. For the value to have increased from £560,000 to £919,500 over the seventeen years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
