8 PORTFIELD DRIVE 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 two 8 PORTFIELD DRIVE sales from June 1996 and August 2005 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 June 1996 sale was for 10% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% above the HPI over time, until the August 2005 sale, where it falls to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.

What might 8 PORTFIELD DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 87.5%, between August 2005 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Sandwell local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 87.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 PORTFIELD DRIVE of £157,000 on 22nd August 2005. For the value to have increased from £157,000 to £294,453 over the eighteen years and eight months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
