53 THE CREST 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 53 THE CREST sales between October 1999 and November 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 June 2001 sale was for 25% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% above the HPI over time, until the November 2020 sale, where it rises to 35% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 35% above the HPI.

What might 53 THE CREST be worth now?

53 THE CREST might now be worth an estimated £377,654.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.8%, between November 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 21.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 53 THE CREST of £310,000 on 5th November 2020. For the value to have increased from £310,000 to £377,654 over the three years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 53 THE CREST has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cumberland local authority area.
• The November 2020 sale price of £310,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 53 THE CREST has not materially changed since November 2020.
