THE HIGHLANDS 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 HIGHLANDS sales between November 2011 and December 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 September 2014 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the December 2021 sale, where it rises to 10% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% below the HPI.

What might THE HIGHLANDS be worth now?

THE HIGHLANDS might now be worth an estimated £345,580.

This is based on house price inflation of 8%, between December 2021 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 8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE HIGHLANDS of £320,000 on 15th December 2021. For the value to have increased from £320,000 to £345,580 over the three years to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE HIGHLANDS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Forest of Dean local authority area.
• The December 2021 sale price of £320,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE HIGHLANDS has not materially changed since December 2021.
