OVERBURY 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 OVERBURY sales between September 1999 and October 2024 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 2021 sale was for 7% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 7% below the HPI over time, until the October 2024 sale, where it rises to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.

What might OVERBURY be worth now?

OVERBURY might now be worth an estimated £500,263.

This is based on house price inflation of 1.1%, between October 2024 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 1.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for OVERBURY of £495,000 on 23rd October 2024. For the value to have increased from £495,000 to £500,263 over the one year and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of OVERBURY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The October 2024 sale price of £495,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of OVERBURY has not materially changed since October 2024.
