26 SOMME CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Lincoln local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 26 SOMME CLOSE sales between February 2006 and October 2017 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 September 2007 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the October 2017 sale, where it rises to 17% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 17% above the HPI.

What might 26 SOMME CLOSE be worth now?

The 31.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 26 SOMME CLOSE of £179,950 on 20th October 2017. For the value to have increased from £179,950 to £236,670 over the six years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
