2 LEANDER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 2 LEANDER CLOSE sales between September 2011 and May 2018 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 2018 sale was for 28% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 28% below the HPI over time, until the May 2018 sale, where it falls to 31% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 31% below the HPI.

What might 2 LEANDER CLOSE be worth now?

2 LEANDER CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £193,751.

This is based on house price inflation of 29.2%, between May 2018 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Cumberland local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 29.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 LEANDER CLOSE of £150,000 on 4th May 2018. For the value to have increased from £150,000 to £193,751 over the five years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 LEANDER CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cumberland local authority area.
