96 THE HIGHLANDS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Neath Port Talbot local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 96 THE HIGHLANDS sales between April 2002 and August 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 September 2008 sale was for 28% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% above the HPI over time, until the August 2013 sale, where it rises to 43% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% above the HPI.

What might 96 THE HIGHLANDS be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 79.9%, between August 2013 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Neath Port Talbot local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 79.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 96 THE HIGHLANDS of £197,000 on 23rd August 2013. For the value to have increased from £197,000 to £354,437 over the ten years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
