1 LAWRENCE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Eastbourne local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 1 LAWRENCE CLOSE sales between July 2012 and September 2019 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 August 2015 sale was for 44% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% below the HPI over time, until the September 2019 sale, where it rises to 41% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 41% below the HPI.

What might 1 LAWRENCE CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 16.6%, between September 2019 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Eastbourne local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 16.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 LAWRENCE CLOSE of £260,000 on 20th September 2019. For the value to have increased from £260,000 to £303,155 over the four years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
