THE LAURELS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Blaenau Gwent local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two THE LAURELS sales from March 1995 and September 1999 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 1995 sale was for 109% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 109% above the HPI over time, until the September 1999 sale, where it falls to 93% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 93% above the HPI.

What might THE LAURELS be worth now?

THE LAURELS might now be worth an estimated £445,846.

This is based on house price inflation of 324.6%, between September 1999 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Blaenau Gwent local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 324.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE LAURELS of £105,000 on 29th September 1999. For the value to have increased from £105,000 to £445,846 over the 26 years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE LAURELS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Blaenau Gwent local authority area.
• The September 1999 sale price of £105,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE LAURELS has not materially changed since September 1999.
