DOVE COTE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torfaen local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two DOVE COTE sales from August 2001 and November 2015 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 August 2001 sale was for 51% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 51% below the HPI over time, until the November 2015 sale, where it falls to 59% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 59% below the HPI.

What might DOVE COTE be worth now?

DOVE COTE might now be worth an estimated £128,509.

This is based on house price inflation of 51.2%, between November 2015 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Torfaen local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 51.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for DOVE COTE of £85,000 on 9th November 2015. For the value to have increased from £85,000 to £128,509 over the eight years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of DOVE COTE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Torfaen local authority area.
• The November 2015 sale price of £85,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of DOVE COTE has not materially changed since November 2015.
