28 WEST DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Bridgend local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 28 WEST DRIVE sales from October 1996 and January 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 October 1996 sale was for 136% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 136% above the HPI over time, until the January 2020 sale, where it rises to 153% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 153% above the HPI.

What might 28 WEST DRIVE be worth now?

28 WEST DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £826,182.

This is based on house price inflation of 42.4%, between January 2020 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Bridgend local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 42.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 28 WEST DRIVE of £580,000 on 3rd January 2020. For the value to have increased from £580,000 to £826,182 over the three years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 28 WEST DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Bridgend local authority area.
• The January 2020 sale price of £580,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
