16 SKERN WAY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Torridge local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The five 16 SKERN WAY sales between September 1996 and April 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 April 2008 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the April 2022 sale, where it rises to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.

What might 16 SKERN WAY be worth now?

16 SKERN WAY might now be worth an estimated £274,531.

This is based on house price inflation of 1.7%, between April 2022 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Torridge local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 16 SKERN WAY of £270,000 on 22nd April 2022. For the value to have increased from £270,000 to £274,531 over the one year and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 16 SKERN WAY has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Torridge local authority area.
• The April 2022 sale price of £270,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 16 SKERN WAY has not materially changed since April 2022.
