VERDI Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the New Forest local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two VERDI sales from December 2012 and August 2018 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 December 2012 sale was for 37% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% below the HPI over time, until the August 2018 sale, where it rises to 32% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% below the HPI.

What might VERDI be worth now?

VERDI might now be worth an estimated £394,778.

This is based on house price inflation of 14.4%, between August 2018 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the New Forest local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 14.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for VERDI of £345,000 on 6th August 2018. For the value to have increased from £345,000 to £394,778 over the five years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of VERDI has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the New Forest local authority area.
• The August 2018 sale price of £345,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of VERDI has not materially changed since August 2018.
