WINDY RIDGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Gateshead local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three WINDY RIDGE sales between May 1995 and September 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 January 1997 sale was for 39% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% above the HPI over time, until the September 2021 sale, where it rises to 69% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 69% above the HPI.

What might WINDY RIDGE be worth now?

WINDY RIDGE might now be worth an estimated £483,532.

This is based on house price inflation of 12.4%, between September 2021 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Gateshead local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 12.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WINDY RIDGE of £430,000 on 28th September 2021. For the value to have increased from £430,000 to £483,532 over the two years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WINDY RIDGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Gateshead local authority area.
• The September 2021 sale price of £430,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WINDY RIDGE has not materially changed since September 2021.
