MEADOW COTTAGE 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 four MEADOW COTTAGE sales between May 2005 and November 2022 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 2019 sale was for 13% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% below the HPI over time, until the November 2022 sale, where it rises to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.

What might MEADOW COTTAGE be worth now?

MEADOW COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £512,299.

This is based on house price deflation of 4.2%, between November 2022 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 4.2% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for MEADOW COTTAGE of £535,000 on 17th November 2022. For the value to have decreased from £535,000 to £512,299 over the three years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MEADOW COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The November 2022 sale price of £535,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MEADOW COTTAGE has not materially changed since November 2022.
