SWALLOWS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the South Hams local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two SWALLOWS sales from September 2008 and October 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 September 2008 sale was for 43% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% below the HPI over time, until the October 2016 sale, where it rises to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.

What might SWALLOWS be worth now?

SWALLOWS might now be worth an estimated £511,043.

This is based on house price inflation of 38.1%, between October 2016 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the South Hams local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 38.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SWALLOWS of £370,000 on 19th October 2016. For the value to have increased from £370,000 to £511,043 over the nine years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SWALLOWS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the South Hams local authority area.
• The October 2016 sale price of £370,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of SWALLOWS has not materially changed since October 2016.
