22 MORTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the County Durham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 22 MORTON CLOSE sales from May 2004 and October 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 May 2004 sale was for 14% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% below the HPI over time, until the October 2009 sale, where it falls to 33% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 33% below the HPI.

What might 22 MORTON CLOSE be worth now?

22 MORTON CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £158,602.

This is based on house price inflation of 32.2%, between October 2009 and February 2025, for 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 32.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 22 MORTON CLOSE of £120,000 on 1st October 2009. For the value to have increased from £120,000 to £158,602 over the sixteen years and eight months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
