The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sandwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 26 OLD COLLEGE DRIVE sales between April 2006 and November 2018 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 April 2017 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the November 2018 sale, where it falls to 5% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% above the HPI.
26 OLD COLLEGE DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £332,366.
This is based on house price inflation of 37.6%, between November 2018 and December 2024, 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).
