BROOKSIDE 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 BROOKSIDE sales from January 2000 and May 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 January 2000 sale was for 4% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% below the HPI over time, until the May 2014 sale, where it rises to 1% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 1% above the HPI.

What might BROOKSIDE be worth now?

BROOKSIDE might now be worth an estimated £259,941.

This is based on house price inflation of 40.5%, between May 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 40.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for BROOKSIDE of £185,000 on 23rd May 2014. For the value to have increased from £185,000 to £259,941 over the nine years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of BROOKSIDE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Sunderland local authority area.
• The May 2014 sale price of £185,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of BROOKSIDE has not materially changed since May 2014.
