38 STARKIE DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Sandwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 38 STARKIE DRIVE sales from August 1997 and January 2020 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 August 1997 sale was for 22% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 22% above the HPI over time, until the January 2020 sale, where it falls to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.

What might 38 STARKIE DRIVE be worth now?

38 STARKIE DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £210,060.

This is based on house price inflation of 37.7%, between January 2020 and December 2024, for semi-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).

The 37.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 38 STARKIE DRIVE of £152,500 on 31st January 2020. For the value to have increased from £152,500 to £210,060 over the three years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 38 STARKIE DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Sandwell local authority area.
• The January 2020 sale price of £152,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
