17 SWAIN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the East Devon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 17 SWAIN CLOSE sales between June 2006 and August 2023 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 September 2019 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the August 2023 sale, where it rises to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might 17 SWAIN CLOSE be worth now?

17 SWAIN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £278,851.

This is based on house price inflation of 2.5%, between August 2023 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the East Devon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 2.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 SWAIN CLOSE of £272,000 on 10th August 2023. For the value to have increased from £272,000 to £278,851 over the two years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 17 SWAIN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the East Devon local authority area.
• The August 2023 sale price of £272,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 17 SWAIN CLOSE has not materially changed since August 2023.
