7 FOSTER DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cardiff local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 7 FOSTER DRIVE sales from February 2005 and August 2009 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 February 2005 sale was for 46% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 46% below the HPI over time, until the August 2009 sale, where it rises to 42% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% below the HPI.

What might 7 FOSTER DRIVE be worth now?

7 FOSTER DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £301,173.

This is based on house price inflation of 89.4%, between August 2009 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Cardiff local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 89.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 FOSTER DRIVE of £159,000 on 28th August 2009. For the value to have increased from £159,000 to £301,173 over the sixteen years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 7 FOSTER DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cardiff local authority area.
• The August 2009 sale price of £159,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 7 FOSTER DRIVE has not materially changed since August 2009.
