5 FARNHAM DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Darlington local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 FARNHAM DRIVE sales from October 2003 and September 2016 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 October 2003 sale was for 11% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% below the HPI over time, until the September 2016 sale, where it falls to 17% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% below the HPI.

What might 5 FARNHAM DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 31.3%, between September 2016 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Darlington local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 31.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 FARNHAM DRIVE of £178,000 on 9th September 2016. For the value to have increased from £178,000 to £233,665 over the seven years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
