MELODY Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Neath Port Talbot local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two MELODY sales from February 2004 and December 2023 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 February 2004 sale was for 40% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% above the HPI over time, until the December 2023 sale, where it falls to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.

What might MELODY be worth now?

MELODY might now be worth an estimated £252,610.

This is based on house price inflation of 1%, between December 2023 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Neath Port Talbot local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MELODY of £250,000 on 15th December 2023. For the value to have increased from £250,000 to £252,610 over the two years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MELODY has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Neath Port Talbot local authority area.
• The December 2023 sale price of £250,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MELODY has not materially changed since December 2023.
