KENYA Sold Prices

The below table shows the price paid for the two sales, along with the average detached price in the Swansea local authority area for the corresponding sale date. Both of the two KENYA sales were for below the average price. The average price is sourced from the Office for National Statistics' House Price Index (HPI).

Date	Price	HPI Price	Variation from HPI
1996 20 NOV	£12,000	£73,972	84% below HPI
1996 26 JUL	£22,000	£72,351	70% below HPI

KENYA 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 KENYA sales from July 1996 and November 1996 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 July 1996 sale was for 70% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 70% below the HPI over time, until the November 1996 sale, where it falls to 84% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 84% below the HPI.

What might KENYA be worth now?

KENYA might now be worth an estimated £51,171.

This is based on house price inflation of 326.4%, between November 1996 and February 2025, 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 326.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for KENYA of £12,000 on 20th November 1996. For the value to have increased from £12,000 to £51,171 over the 29 years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of KENYA has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Swansea local authority area.
• The November 1996 sale price of £12,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of KENYA has not materially changed since November 1996.
