HILLCREST Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sunderland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HILLCREST sales from June 2014 and August 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 June 2014 sale was for 2% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 2% above the HPI over time, until the August 2021 sale, where it falls to 5% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 5% below the HPI.

What might HILLCREST be worth now?

HILLCREST might now be worth an estimated £246,288.

This is based on house price inflation of 15.9%, between August 2021 and June 2025, for detached houses, in the Sunderland local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 15.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HILLCREST of £212,500 on 25th August 2021. For the value to have increased from £212,500 to £246,288 over the four years and two months to June 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HILLCREST has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Sunderland local authority area.
• The August 2021 sale price of £212,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HILLCREST has not materially changed since August 2021.
