HILLCREST Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Torfaen local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HILLCREST sales from January 1996 and May 2019 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 January 1996 sale was for 22% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% above the HPI over time, until the May 2019 sale, where it rises to 50% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 50% above the HPI.

What might HILLCREST be worth now?

HILLCREST might now be worth an estimated £295,980.

This is based on house price inflation of 31.6%, between May 2019 and February 2025, for semi-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 31.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HILLCREST of £224,950 on 9th May 2019. For the value to have increased from £224,950 to £295,980 over the six years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HILLCREST has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Torfaen local authority area.
• The May 2019 sale price of £224,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HILLCREST has not materially changed since May 2019.
