18 PLATTES CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Swindon local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 18 PLATTES CLOSE sales between July 1997 and March 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 May 2004 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the March 2017 sale, where it falls to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.

What might 18 PLATTES CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 25.5%, between March 2017 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Swindon local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 25.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 PLATTES CLOSE of £238,000 on 20th March 2017. For the value to have increased from £238,000 to £298,797 over the eight years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 18 PLATTES CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Swindon local authority area.
• The March 2017 sale price of £238,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
