8 LAKIN DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Vale of Glamorgan local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 8 LAKIN DRIVE sales between April 1996 and September 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 December 2005 sale was for 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the September 2016 sale, where it falls to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.

What might 8 LAKIN DRIVE be worth now?

8 LAKIN DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £202,991.

This is based on house price inflation of 48.7%, between September 2016 and May 2026, for semi-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 48.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 LAKIN DRIVE of £136,500 on 23rd September 2016. For the value to have increased from £136,500 to £202,991 over the ten years and four months to May 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 LAKIN DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Vale of Glamorgan local authority area.
• The September 2016 sale price of £136,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
