The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sandwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 196 THIMBLEMILL ROAD sales between August 1998 and July 2014 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 2005 sale was for 12% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% above the HPI over time, until the July 2014 sale, where it falls to 8% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% below the HPI.
196 THIMBLEMILL ROAD might now be worth an estimated £291,545.
This is based on house price inflation of 86.9%, between July 2014 and February 2025, for 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 86.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 196 THIMBLEMILL ROAD of £156,000 on 25th July 2014. For the value to have increased from £156,000 to £291,545 over the eleven years and five months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
