14 FORSTER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the County Durham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 14 FORSTER CLOSE sales from October 1999 and September 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 October 1999 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the September 2009 sale, where it rises to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.

What might 14 FORSTER CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 33.8%, between September 2009 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the County Durham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 33.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 14 FORSTER CLOSE of £192,500 on 30th September 2009. For the value to have increased from £192,500 to £257,561 over the fourteen years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
