THE RIDINGS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Rhondda Cynon Taf local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three THE RIDINGS sales between October 1999 and August 2018 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 December 2001 sale was for 67% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 67% above the HPI over time, until the August 2018 sale, where it falls to 3% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 3% below the HPI.

What might THE RIDINGS be worth now?

THE RIDINGS might now be worth an estimated £269,522.

This is based on house price inflation of 49.7%, between August 2018 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Rhondda Cynon Taf local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 49.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE RIDINGS of £180,000 on 16th August 2018. For the value to have increased from £180,000 to £269,522 over the five years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE RIDINGS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Rhondda Cynon Taf local authority area.
• The August 2018 sale price of £180,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE RIDINGS has not materially changed since August 2018.
