The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Sandwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 18 MONARCH DRIVE sales from September 1996 and December 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 September 1996 sale was for 41% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 41% above the HPI over time, until the December 2007 sale, where it falls to 48% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 48% below the HPI.
18 MONARCH DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £113,626.
This is based on house price inflation of 70.4%, between December 2007 and February 2025, 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 70.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 MONARCH DRIVE of £66,671 on 21st December 2007. For the value to have increased from £66,671 to £113,626 over the eighteen years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
