9 SWALE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Torbay local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 9 SWALE CLOSE sales between April 1996 and April 2013 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 12% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% above the HPI over time, until the April 2013 sale, where it falls to 3% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% above the HPI.

What might 9 SWALE CLOSE be worth now?

9 SWALE CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £291,671.

This is based on house price inflation of 66.7%, between April 2013 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Torbay local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 66.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 9 SWALE CLOSE of £175,000 on 19th April 2013. For the value to have increased from £175,000 to £291,671 over the twelve years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 9 SWALE CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Torbay local authority area.
• The April 2013 sale price of £175,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
