3 SWEETHOPE DENE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Northumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 3 SWEETHOPE DENE sales between August 1997 and August 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 September 2016 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the August 2018 sale, where it rises to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.

What might 3 SWEETHOPE DENE be worth now?

3 SWEETHOPE DENE might now be worth an estimated £361,226.

This is based on house price inflation of 31.4%, between August 2018 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Northumberland local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 31.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 SWEETHOPE DENE of £275,000 on 21st August 2018. For the value to have increased from £275,000 to £361,226 over the five years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 SWEETHOPE DENE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Northumberland local authority area.
• The August 2018 sale price of £275,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
