OAKLYN Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Forest of Dean local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two OAKLYN sales from January 2018 and July 2023 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 January 2018 sale was for 39% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% below the HPI over time, until the July 2023 sale, where it rises to 10% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% below the HPI.

What might OAKLYN be worth now?

OAKLYN might now be worth an estimated £365,381.

This is based on house price inflation of 3.8%, between July 2023 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Forest of Dean local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 3.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for OAKLYN of £352,000 on 7th July 2023. For the value to have increased from £352,000 to £365,381 over the two years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of OAKLYN has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Forest of Dean local authority area.
• The July 2023 sale price of £352,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of OAKLYN has not materially changed since July 2023.
