2 EARLS CLOSE 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 2 EARLS CLOSE sales between December 2003 and March 2022 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 July 2017 sale was for 33% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% below the HPI over time, until the March 2022 sale, where it rises to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might 2 EARLS CLOSE be worth now?

2 EARLS CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £422,672.

This is based on house price deflation of 0.5%, between March 2022 and April 2026, 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 0.5% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 EARLS CLOSE of £425,000 on 3rd March 2022. For the value to have decreased from £425,000 to £422,672 over the three years and eleven months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 EARLS CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The March 2022 sale price of £425,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 2 EARLS CLOSE has not materially changed since March 2022.
