1 LAPWING CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Kesteven local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 LAPWING CLOSE sales from July 2021 and June 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 2021 sale was for 43% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 43% below the HPI over time, until the June 2022 sale, where it rises to 20% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 20% below the HPI.

What might 1 LAPWING CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price deflation of 1.9%, between June 2022 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the North Kesteven local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 1.9% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 LAPWING CLOSE of £240,000 on 1st June 2022. For the value to have decreased from £240,000 to £235,330 over the one year and six months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
