THE ORCHARDS 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 ORCHARDS sales between February 2006 and October 2012 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 February 2008 sale was for 1% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% above the HPI over time, until the October 2012 sale, where it falls to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.

What might THE ORCHARDS be worth now?

THE ORCHARDS might now be worth an estimated £395,711.

This is based on house price inflation of 84.1%, between October 2012 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 84.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE ORCHARDS of £215,000 on 26th October 2012. For the value to have increased from £215,000 to £395,711 over the thirteen years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE ORCHARDS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Forest of Dean local authority area.
• The October 2012 sale price of £215,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE ORCHARDS has not materially changed since October 2012.
