2 BIGBURY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sunderland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 2 BIGBURY CLOSE sales between December 1999 and August 2020 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 2004 sale was for 20% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% above the HPI over time, until the August 2020 sale, where it falls to 2% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% below the HPI.

What might 2 BIGBURY CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 28.3%, between August 2020 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Sunderland local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 28.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 BIGBURY CLOSE of £196,000 on 28th August 2020. For the value to have increased from £196,000 to £251,388 over the three years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
