48 SOUTER DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the County Durham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 48 SOUTER DRIVE sales between March 2005 and November 2014 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 2007 sale was for 31% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 31% above the HPI over time, until the November 2014 sale, where it rises to 60% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 60% above the HPI.

What might 48 SOUTER DRIVE be worth now?

48 SOUTER DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £218,279.

This is based on house price inflation of 49%, between November 2014 and February 2025, for semi-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 49% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 48 SOUTER DRIVE of £146,500 on 21st November 2014. For the value to have increased from £146,500 to £218,279 over the eleven years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
