MICHAELSTONE COTTAGE 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 four MICHAELSTONE COTTAGE sales between January 2001 and November 2020 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 June 2015 sale was for 18% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% below the HPI over time, until the November 2020 sale, where it rises to 144% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 144% above the HPI.

What might MICHAELSTONE COTTAGE be worth now?

MICHAELSTONE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £610,740.

This is based on house price inflation of 29.9%, between November 2020 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 29.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MICHAELSTONE COTTAGE of £470,000 on 20th November 2020. For the value to have increased from £470,000 to £610,740 over the five years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MICHAELSTONE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Neath Port Talbot local authority area.
• The November 2020 sale price of £470,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MICHAELSTONE COTTAGE has not materially changed since November 2020.
