6 BIRCH CRESCENT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Gateshead local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 6 BIRCH CRESCENT sales from October 2017 and July 2023 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 2017 sale was for 26% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 26% above the HPI over time, until the July 2023 sale, where it falls to 14% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 14% above the HPI.

What might 6 BIRCH CRESCENT be worth now?
