THE FIRS 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 four THE FIRS sales between April 2005 and January 2019 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 June 2015 sale was for 73% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 73% above the HPI over time, until the January 2019 sale, where it rises to 80% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 80% above the HPI.

What might THE FIRS be worth now?

THE FIRS might now be worth an estimated £938,957.

This is based on house price inflation of 19.6%, between January 2019 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 19.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE FIRS of £785,000 on 10th January 2019. For the value to have increased from £785,000 to £938,957 over the four years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE FIRS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The January 2019 sale price of £785,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE FIRS has not materially changed since January 2019.
