18 HIGHLAND GARDENS 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 two 18 HIGHLAND GARDENS sales from April 1998 and January 2002 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 April 1998 sale was for 19% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 19% below the HPI over time, until the January 2002 sale, where it rises to 18% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 18% below the HPI.

What might 18 HIGHLAND GARDENS be worth now?

18 HIGHLAND GARDENS might now be worth an estimated £111,037.

This is based on house price inflation of 192.2%, between January 2002 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 192.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 HIGHLAND GARDENS of £38,000 on 11th January 2002. For the value to have increased from £38,000 to £111,037 over the 22 years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
