YEW TREE COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three YEW TREE COTTAGE sales between April 1996 and March 2016 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 October 2000 sale was for 32% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% below the HPI over time, until the March 2016 sale, where it falls to 40% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% below the HPI.

What might YEW TREE COTTAGE be worth now?

YEW TREE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £319,382.

This is based on house price inflation of 33.1%, between March 2016 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Dorset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 33.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for YEW TREE COTTAGE of £240,000 on 4th March 2016. For the value to have increased from £240,000 to £319,382 over the nine years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of YEW TREE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The March 2016 sale price of £240,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of YEW TREE COTTAGE has not materially changed since March 2016.
