BALATON Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Northumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two BALATON sales from May 2008 and November 2018 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 2008 sale was for 15% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% above the HPI over time, until the November 2018 sale, where it rises to 28% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 28% above the HPI.

What might BALATON be worth now?

BALATON might now be worth an estimated £459,672.

This is based on house price inflation of 35.2%, between November 2018 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Northumberland local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 35.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BALATON of £340,000 on 6th November 2018. For the value to have increased from £340,000 to £459,672 over the seven years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BALATON has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Northumberland local authority area.
• The November 2018 sale price of £340,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BALATON has not materially changed since November 2018.
