2 VIKING CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Lewes local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 2 VIKING CLOSE sales from August 2017 and September 2024 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 2017 sale was for 44% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% below the HPI over time, until the September 2024 sale, where it rises to 39% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% below the HPI.

What might 2 VIKING CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price deflation of 3.8%, between September 2024 and December 2024, for 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 3.8% deflationary decrease is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 VIKING CLOSE of £370,000 on 4th September 2024. For the value to have decreased from £370,000 to £355,831 over the nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
