WESTCROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the County Durham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three WESTCROFT sales between January 1997 and November 2021 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 December 2002 sale was for 91% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 91% above the HPI over time, until the November 2021 sale, where it falls to 67% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 67% above the HPI.

What might WESTCROFT be worth now?

WESTCROFT might now be worth an estimated £393,565.

This is based on house price inflation of 14.1%, between November 2021 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the County Durham local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 14.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WESTCROFT of £345,000 on 26th November 2021. For the value to have increased from £345,000 to £393,565 over the four years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WESTCROFT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the County Durham local authority area.
• The November 2021 sale price of £345,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WESTCROFT has not materially changed since November 2021.
