The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Sandwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 129 POOL LANE sales between July 2002 and October 2007 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 2006 sale was for 33% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 33% above the HPI over time, until the October 2007 sale, where it falls to 31% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% above the HPI.
129 POOL LANE might now be worth an estimated £285,166.
This is based on house price inflation of 70.2%, between October 2007 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Sandwell local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 70.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 129 POOL LANE of £167,500 on 5th October 2007. For the value to have increased from £167,500 to £285,166 over the sixteen years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
