15 BANK TOP Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the County Durham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 15 BANK TOP sales between April 1997 and May 2012 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 May 2006 sale was for 49% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 49% above the HPI over time, until the May 2012 sale, where it falls to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.

What might 15 BANK TOP be worth now?

15 BANK TOP might now be worth an estimated £150,247.

This is based on house price inflation of 43.1%, between May 2012 and February 2025, for semi-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 43.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 15 BANK TOP of £105,000 on 22nd May 2012. For the value to have increased from £105,000 to £150,247 over the thirteen years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 15 BANK TOP has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the County Durham local authority area.
• The May 2012 sale price of £105,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 15 BANK TOP has not materially changed since May 2012.
