POACHERS LODGE 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 POACHERS LODGE sales from January 2019 and November 2020 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 2019 sale was for 35% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% above the HPI over time, until the November 2020 sale, where it rises to 49% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% above the HPI.

What might POACHERS LODGE be worth now?

POACHERS LODGE might now be worth an estimated £569,411.

This is based on house price inflation of 13.9%, between November 2020 and December 2024, 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 13.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for POACHERS LODGE of £500,000 on 12th November 2020. For the value to have increased from £500,000 to £569,411 over the three years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of POACHERS LODGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Forest of Dean local authority area.
• The November 2020 sale price of £500,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
