1 GODFREY CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Lewes local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 1 GODFREY CLOSE sales between February 1996 and May 2023 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 March 2016 sale was for 8% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% above the HPI over time, until the May 2023 sale, where it falls to 7% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 7% below the HPI.

What might 1 GODFREY CLOSE be worth now?

1 GODFREY CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £370,414.

This is based on house price deflation of 5%, between May 2023 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Lewes local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 5% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 GODFREY CLOSE of £390,000 on 3rd May 2023. For the value to have decreased from £390,000 to £370,414 over the five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 GODFREY CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Lewes local authority area.
• The May 2023 sale price of £390,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
