8 GILLINGHAM CLOSE 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 three 8 GILLINGHAM CLOSE sales between November 2001 and July 2014 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 2007 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the July 2014 sale, where it falls to 24% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 24% below the HPI.

What might 8 GILLINGHAM CLOSE be worth now?

The 87.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 GILLINGHAM CLOSE of £128,000 on 25th July 2014. For the value to have increased from £128,000 to £239,897 over the nine years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
