5A BACKSTONE BURN Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the County Durham local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 5A BACKSTONE BURN sales from October 1999 and April 2006 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 October 1999 sale was for 41% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 41% below the HPI over time, until the April 2006 sale, where it rises to 10% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% above the HPI.

What might 5A BACKSTONE BURN be worth now?

5A BACKSTONE BURN might now be worth an estimated £147,922.

This is based on house price inflation of 28.6%, between April 2006 and June 2025, for semi-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 28.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 5A BACKSTONE BURN of £115,000 on 7th April 2006. For the value to have increased from £115,000 to £147,922 over the eighteen years and ten months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 5A BACKSTONE BURN has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the County Durham local authority area.
• The April 2006 sale price of £115,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
