8 HIGH CROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sunderland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 HIGH CROFT sales between August 2000 and October 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 May 2005 sale was for 32% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% above the HPI over time, until the October 2014 sale, where it falls to 22% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% above the HPI.

What might 8 HIGH CROFT be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 41.4%, between October 2014 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Sunderland local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 41.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 HIGH CROFT of £222,000 on 17th October 2014. For the value to have increased from £222,000 to £313,901 over the nine years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
