THE GARTH Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Torfaen local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four THE GARTH sales between July 2000 and October 2016 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 March 2016 sale was for 6% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 6% below the HPI over time, until the October 2016 sale, where it falls to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.

What might THE GARTH be worth now?

THE GARTH might now be worth an estimated £240,537.

This is based on house price inflation of 45.8%, between October 2016 and February 2025, for 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 45.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE GARTH of £165,000 on 14th October 2016. For the value to have increased from £165,000 to £240,537 over the nine years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE GARTH has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Torfaen local authority area.
• The October 2016 sale price of £165,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE GARTH has not materially changed since October 2016.
