WATERGATE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Vale of Glamorgan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three WATERGATE sales between December 1995 and September 2024 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 2004 sale was for 13% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 13% above the HPI over time, until the September 2024 sale, where it falls to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.

What might WATERGATE be worth now?

WATERGATE might now be worth an estimated £521,884.

This is based on house price inflation of 0.4%, between September 2024 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Vale of Glamorgan local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 0.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WATERGATE of £520,000 on 30th September 2024. For the value to have increased from £520,000 to £521,884 over the one year and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WATERGATE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Vale of Glamorgan local authority area.
• The September 2024 sale price of £520,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WATERGATE has not materially changed since September 2024.
