9 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 two 9 THE CREST sales from October 2018 and April 2024 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 2018 sale was for 11% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 11% above the HPI over time, until the April 2024 sale, where it rises to 42% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 42% above the HPI.

What might 9 THE CREST be worth now?

9 THE CREST might now be worth an estimated £246,627.

This is based on house price inflation of 9.6%, between April 2024 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 9.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 9 THE CREST of £225,000 on 26th April 2024. For the value to have increased from £225,000 to £246,627 over the four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 9 THE CREST has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Cumberland local authority area.
