2 LONGTHORPE LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Leeds local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 2 LONGTHORPE LANE sales between September 1998 and January 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 October 2001 sale was for 40% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 40% above the HPI over time, until the January 2018 sale, where it falls to 17% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% above the HPI.

What might 2 LONGTHORPE LANE be worth now?

2 LONGTHORPE LANE might now be worth an estimated £526,082.

This is based on house price inflation of 40.3%, between January 2018 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Leeds local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 40.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 LONGTHORPE LANE of £375,000 on 26th January 2018. For the value to have increased from £375,000 to £526,082 over the five years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 LONGTHORPE LANE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Leeds local authority area.
• The January 2018 sale price of £375,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 2 LONGTHORPE LANE has not materially changed since January 2018.
