26 LORTON CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Preston local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 26 LORTON CLOSE sales between December 1996 and June 2023 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 November 2017 sale was for 35% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 35% below the HPI over time, until the June 2023 sale, where it rises to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.

What might 26 LORTON CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 10.8%, between June 2023 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Preston local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 10.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 26 LORTON CLOSE of £220,000 on 26th June 2023. For the value to have increased from £220,000 to £243,739 over the two years and four months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
