7 FORFAR CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Darlington local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 7 FORFAR CLOSE sales between September 2006 and August 2020 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 2015 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the August 2020 sale, where it falls to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.

What might 7 FORFAR CLOSE be worth now?

7 FORFAR CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £163,148.

This is based on house price inflation of 27.2%, between August 2020 and June 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Darlington local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 27.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 7 FORFAR CLOSE of £128,250 on 27th August 2020. For the value to have increased from £128,250 to £163,148 over the five years and two months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 7 FORFAR CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Darlington local authority area.
