PORTHMEOR Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Sandwell local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three PORTHMEOR sales between October 2000 and February 2017 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 September 2012 sale was for 28% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% above the HPI over time, until the February 2017 sale, where it rises to 32% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% above the HPI.

What might PORTHMEOR be worth now?

PORTHMEOR might now be worth an estimated £288,462.

This is based on house price inflation of 64.8%, between February 2017 and December 2024, for semi-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 64.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for PORTHMEOR of £175,000 on 9th February 2017. For the value to have increased from £175,000 to £288,462 over the six years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of PORTHMEOR has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Sandwell local authority area.
• The February 2017 sale price of £175,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of PORTHMEOR has not materially changed since February 2017.
