4 RUSKIN DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Cumberland local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 4 RUSKIN DRIVE sales between January 1997 and September 2020 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 August 1998 sale was for 3% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% above the HPI over time, until the September 2020 sale, where it rises to 40% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 40% above the HPI.

What might 4 RUSKIN DRIVE be worth now?

4 RUSKIN DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £393,178.

This is based on house price inflation of 24.8%, between September 2020 and December 2024, for 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 24.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 RUSKIN DRIVE of £315,000 on 18th September 2020. For the value to have increased from £315,000 to £393,178 over the three years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 RUSKIN DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cumberland local authority area.
• The September 2020 sale price of £315,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 4 RUSKIN DRIVE has not materially changed since September 2020.
