THE CHALET 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 THE CHALET sales from May 1999 and May 2010 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 May 1999 sale was for 54% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 54% above the HPI over time, until the May 2010 sale, where it falls to 52% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 52% above the HPI.

What might THE CHALET be worth now?

THE CHALET might now be worth an estimated £803,373.

This is based on house price inflation of 62.3%, between May 2010 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 62.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE CHALET of £495,000 on 24th May 2010. For the value to have increased from £495,000 to £803,373 over the fifteen years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE CHALET has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The May 2010 sale price of £495,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE CHALET has not materially changed since May 2010.
