LITTLE MEAD 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 LITTLE MEAD sales from February 2012 and September 2017 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 February 2012 sale was for 45% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% above the HPI over time, until the September 2017 sale, where it rises to 53% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 53% above the HPI.

What might LITTLE MEAD be worth now?

LITTLE MEAD might now be worth an estimated £794,685.

This is based on house price inflation of 19.5%, between September 2017 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 19.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LITTLE MEAD of £665,003 on 7th September 2017. For the value to have increased from £665,003 to £794,685 over the six years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LITTLE MEAD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The September 2017 sale price of £665,003 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LITTLE MEAD has not materially changed since September 2017.
