21 THE FIRS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Darlington local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 21 THE FIRS sales from June 2000 and December 2009 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 June 2000 sale was for 23% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 23% below the HPI over time, until the December 2009 sale, where it falls to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.

What might 21 THE FIRS be worth now?

21 THE FIRS might now be worth an estimated £206,472.

This is based on house price inflation of 35.4%, between December 2009 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Darlington local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 35.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 21 THE FIRS of £152,500 on 18th December 2009. For the value to have increased from £152,500 to £206,472 over the sixteen years and ten months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The December 2009 sale price of £152,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 21 THE FIRS has not materially changed since December 2009.
