8A THE WHIMBRELS 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 8A THE WHIMBRELS sales from April 2002 and June 2018 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 2002 sale was for 124% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 124% above the HPI over time, until the June 2018 sale, where it falls to 85% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 85% above the HPI.

What might 8A THE WHIMBRELS be worth now?

8A THE WHIMBRELS might now be worth an estimated £608,118.

This is based on house price inflation of 54%, between June 2018 and February 2025, 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 54% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8A THE WHIMBRELS of £395,000 on 18th June 2018. For the value to have increased from £395,000 to £608,118 over the seven years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8A THE WHIMBRELS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Bridgend local authority area.
• The June 2018 sale price of £395,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
