18 BIRCH CRESCENT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Gateshead local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 18 BIRCH CRESCENT sales from July 2018 and November 2022 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 July 2018 sale was for 50% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 50% above the HPI over time, until the November 2022 sale, where it falls to 44% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 44% above the HPI.

What might 18 BIRCH CRESCENT be worth now?

18 BIRCH CRESCENT might now be worth an estimated £248,181.

This is based on house price inflation of 1.3%, between November 2022 and June 2025, for semi-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 1.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 18 BIRCH CRESCENT of £245,000 on 10th November 2022. For the value to have increased from £245,000 to £248,181 over the three years and five months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 18 BIRCH CRESCENT has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Gateshead local authority area.
• The November 2022 sale price of £245,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
