PUMP 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 two PUMP COTTAGE sales from September 2005 and September 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 September 2005 sale was for 52% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 52% below the HPI over time, until the September 2024 sale, where it falls to 56% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 56% below the HPI.

What might PUMP COTTAGE be worth now?

PUMP COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £228,782.

This is based on house price deflation of 0.5%, between September 2024 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 0.5% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for PUMP COTTAGE of £230,000 on 27th September 2024. For the value to have decreased from £230,000 to £228,782 over the nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of PUMP COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The September 2024 sale price of £230,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of PUMP COTTAGE has not materially changed since September 2024.
