7 WHITESMOCKS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the County Durham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 7 WHITESMOCKS sales between July 1995 and February 2024 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 February 2016 sale was for 253% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 253% above the HPI over time, until the February 2024 sale, where it rises to 261% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 261% above the HPI.

What might 7 WHITESMOCKS be worth now?

7 WHITESMOCKS might now be worth an estimated £489,207.

This is based on house price inflation of 8.4%, between February 2024 and December 2024, for semi-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 8.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 WHITESMOCKS of £451,500 on 20th February 2024. For the value to have increased from £451,500 to £489,207 over the two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 7 WHITESMOCKS has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the County Durham local authority area.
• The February 2024 sale price of £451,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 7 WHITESMOCKS has not materially changed since February 2024.
