THE LARCHES 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 four THE LARCHES sales between July 2003 and May 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 November 2009 sale was for 11% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% below the HPI over time, until the May 2019 sale, where it rises to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.

What might THE LARCHES be worth now?

THE LARCHES might now be worth an estimated £392,552.

This is based on house price inflation of 30.9%, between May 2019 and February 2025, 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 30.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE LARCHES of £300,000 on 3rd May 2019. For the value to have increased from £300,000 to £392,552 over the six years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE LARCHES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Forest of Dean local authority area.
• The May 2019 sale price of £300,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE LARCHES has not materially changed since May 2019.
