3 LEIGHTON DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Lancaster local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 3 LEIGHTON DRIVE sales between March 1995 and July 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 1999 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the July 2023 sale, where it falls to 18% below the HPI.
