8 NICHOLAS ROAD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Swansea local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 NICHOLAS ROAD sales from May 1998 and May 2008 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 1998 sale was for 30% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% above the HPI over time, until the May 2008 sale, where it rises to 32% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% above the HPI.

What might 8 NICHOLAS ROAD be worth now?

8 NICHOLAS ROAD might now be worth an estimated £272,768.

This is based on house price inflation of 51.5%, between May 2008 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Swansea local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 51.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 NICHOLAS ROAD of £180,000 on 21st May 2008. For the value to have increased from £180,000 to £272,768 over the fifteen years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
