LEAHURST Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Amber Valley local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three LEAHURST sales between March 1998 and February 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 August 1999 sale was for 15% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 15% above the HPI over time, until the February 2018 sale, where it rises to 19% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% above the HPI.

What might LEAHURST be worth now?

LEAHURST might now be worth an estimated £402,328.

This is based on house price inflation of 43.7%, between February 2018 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Amber Valley local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 43.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for LEAHURST of £279,995 on 19th February 2018. For the value to have increased from £279,995 to £402,328 over the five years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of LEAHURST has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Amber Valley local authority area.
• The February 2018 sale price of £279,995 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of LEAHURST has not materially changed since February 2018.
