THE BEECHES 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 three THE BEECHES sales between November 2003 and December 2017 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 2005 sale was for 34% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 34% above the HPI over time, until the December 2017 sale, where it falls to 18% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% above the HPI.

What might THE BEECHES be worth now?

THE BEECHES might now be worth an estimated £450,436.

This is based on house price inflation of 34.5%, between December 2017 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 34.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE BEECHES of £335,000 on 12th December 2017. For the value to have increased from £335,000 to £450,436 over the seven years to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE BEECHES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Forest of Dean local authority area.
• The December 2017 sale price of £335,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE BEECHES has not materially changed since December 2017.
