3 THE CREST Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Cumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 3 THE CREST sales between November 1999 and April 2021 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 February 2006 sale was for 55% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 55% above the HPI over time, until the April 2021 sale, where it falls to 38% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% above the HPI.

What might 3 THE CREST be worth now?

3 THE CREST might now be worth an estimated £240,127.

This is based on house price inflation of 23.1%, between April 2021 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Cumberland local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 23.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 THE CREST of £195,000 on 30th April 2021. For the value to have increased from £195,000 to £240,127 over the two years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 THE CREST has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Cumberland local authority area.
• The April 2021 sale price of £195,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 3 THE CREST has not materially changed since April 2021.
