KELSTON 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 two KELSTON sales from October 2010 and June 2017 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 October 2010 sale was for 43% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% below the HPI over time, until the June 2017 sale, where it falls to 44% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 44% below the HPI.

What might KELSTON be worth now?

KELSTON might now be worth an estimated £179,985.

This is based on house price inflation of 44%, between June 2017 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 44% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for KELSTON of £124,950 on 30th June 2017. For the value to have increased from £124,950 to £179,985 over the six years and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of KELSTON has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Swansea local authority area.
• The June 2017 sale price of £124,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of KELSTON has not materially changed since June 2017.
