8 WESTERDALE 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 two 8 WESTERDALE sales from January 1998 and December 2020 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 January 1998 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the December 2020 sale, where it rises to 31% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% above the HPI.

What might 8 WESTERDALE be worth now?

8 WESTERDALE might now be worth an estimated £337,588.

This is based on house price inflation of 22.8%, between December 2020 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 22.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 WESTERDALE of £275,000 on 22nd December 2020. For the value to have increased from £275,000 to £337,588 over the four years to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
