4 ELM CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average terraced house price in the Dorset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 4 ELM CLOSE sales between February 1998 and September 2017 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 2005 sale was for 15% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% below the HPI over time, until the September 2017 sale, where it rises to 14% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% below the HPI.

What might 4 ELM CLOSE be worth now?

4 ELM CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £226,942.

This is based on house price inflation of 22.7%, between September 2017 and June 2025, for terraced 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 22.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 ELM CLOSE of £185,000 on 1st September 2017. For the value to have increased from £185,000 to £226,942 over the eight years and three months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 ELM CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the Dorset local authority area.
• The September 2017 sale price of £185,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 4 ELM CLOSE has not materially changed since September 2017.
