5 VIOLET CROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sandwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 VIOLET CROFT sales from September 2000 and March 2008 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 2000 sale was for 28% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% above the HPI over time, until the March 2008 sale, where it falls to 4% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% above the HPI.

What might 5 VIOLET CROFT be worth now?

5 VIOLET CROFT might now be worth an estimated £329,232.

This is based on house price inflation of 68.8%, between March 2008 and December 2024, for 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 68.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 VIOLET CROFT of £195,000 on 14th March 2008. For the value to have increased from £195,000 to £329,232 over the fifteen years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5 VIOLET CROFT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Sandwell local authority area.
• The March 2008 sale price of £195,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
