5 POLDEN CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Dudley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 POLDEN CLOSE sales from May 2002 and July 2015 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 May 2002 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the July 2015 sale, where it falls to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.

What might 5 POLDEN CLOSE be worth now?

5 POLDEN CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £350,930.

This is based on house price inflation of 63.2%, between July 2015 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Dudley local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 63.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 POLDEN CLOSE of £215,000 on 6th July 2015. For the value to have increased from £215,000 to £350,930 over the eight years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 POLDEN CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Dudley local authority area.
• The July 2015 sale price of £215,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
