The below graph shows the average detached house price in the County Durham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 26 MONTALBO ROAD sales from July 1998 and October 2022 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 July 1998 sale was for 25% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% below the HPI over time, until the October 2022 sale, where it rises to 19% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% below the HPI.
26 MONTALBO ROAD might now be worth an estimated £189,979.
