TALL TREES 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 three TALL TREES sales between March 1996 and August 2016 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 April 2009 sale was for 92% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 92% above the HPI over time, until the August 2016 sale, where it falls to 90% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 90% above the HPI.

What might TALL TREES be worth now?

TALL TREES might now be worth an estimated £989,419.

This is based on house price inflation of 29.3%, between August 2016 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 29.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for TALL TREES of £765,000 on 31st August 2016. For the value to have increased from £765,000 to £989,419 over the seven years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of TALL TREES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The August 2016 sale price of £765,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of TALL TREES has not materially changed since August 2016.
