15 THE HIGHLANDS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Neath Port Talbot local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 15 THE HIGHLANDS sales from August 2019 and May 2020 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 August 2019 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the May 2020 sale, where it rises to 8% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% below the HPI.

What might 15 THE HIGHLANDS be worth now?

15 THE HIGHLANDS might now be worth an estimated £228,337.

This is based on house price inflation of 35.1%, between May 2020 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Neath Port Talbot local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 35.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 15 THE HIGHLANDS of £169,000 on 15th May 2020. For the value to have increased from £169,000 to £228,337 over the three years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
