HIGH NOOK Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Swansea local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three HIGH NOOK sales between January 1998 and September 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 November 2003 sale was for 112% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 112% above the HPI over time, until the September 2018 sale, where it falls to 108% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 108% above the HPI.

What might HIGH NOOK be worth now?

HIGH NOOK might now be worth an estimated £666,259.

This is based on house price inflation of 34.6%, between September 2018 and December 2024, for 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 34.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HIGH NOOK of £495,000 on 21st September 2018. For the value to have increased from £495,000 to £666,259 over the five years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HIGH NOOK has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Swansea local authority area.
• The September 2018 sale price of £495,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HIGH NOOK has not materially changed since September 2018.
