THE FORGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Newport local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE FORGE sales between October 2012 and August 2021 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 July 2018 sale was for 52% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 52% above the HPI over time, until the August 2021 sale, where it rises to 99% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 99% above the HPI.

What might THE FORGE be worth now?

THE FORGE might now be worth an estimated £778,535.

This is based on house price inflation of 16.2%, between August 2021 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Newport local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 16.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE FORGE of £670,000 on 2nd August 2021. For the value to have increased from £670,000 to £778,535 over the four years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE FORGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Newport local authority area.
• The August 2021 sale price of £670,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE FORGE has not materially changed since August 2021.
