78 FIELD 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 three 78 FIELD CLOSE sales between December 2002 and January 2025 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 2014 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the January 2025 sale, where it rises to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.

What might 78 FIELD CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price deflation of 0.8%, between January 2025 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 0.8% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 78 FIELD CLOSE of £255,000 on 17th January 2025. For the value to have decreased from £255,000 to £252,990 over the seven months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 78 FIELD CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for terraced houses in the Dorset local authority area.
