5 WETHERBY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the County Durham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5 WETHERBY CLOSE sales from January 2003 and August 2009 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 January 2003 sale was for 78% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 78% above the HPI over time, until the August 2009 sale, where it falls to 40% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% above the HPI.

What might 5 WETHERBY CLOSE be worth now?

5 WETHERBY CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £328,275.

This is based on house price inflation of 36.8%, between August 2009 and December 2024, for 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 36.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5 WETHERBY CLOSE of £240,000 on 28th August 2009. For the value to have increased from £240,000 to £328,275 over the fourteen years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
