4 HAMBER LEA Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Somerset local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 4 HAMBER LEA sales from October 1996 and September 2018 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 October 1996 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the September 2018 sale, where it falls to 27% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 27% below the HPI.

What might 4 HAMBER LEA be worth now?

4 HAMBER LEA might now be worth an estimated £335,223.

This is based on house price inflation of 23%, between September 2018 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Somerset local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 23% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 HAMBER LEA of £272,500 on 24th September 2018. For the value to have increased from £272,500 to £335,223 over the five years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 HAMBER LEA has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Somerset local authority area.
• The September 2018 sale price of £272,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 4 HAMBER LEA has not materially changed since September 2018.
