THE LEES 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 four THE LEES sales between April 2008 and August 2022 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 2019 sale was for 25% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 25% above the HPI over time, until the August 2022 sale, where it rises to 51% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 51% above the HPI.

What might THE LEES be worth now?

THE LEES might now be worth an estimated £420,603.

This is based on house price inflation of 6.5%, between August 2022 and February 2025, 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 6.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for THE LEES of £395,000 on 26th August 2022. For the value to have increased from £395,000 to £420,603 over the three years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of THE LEES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Cumberland local authority area.
• The August 2022 sale price of £395,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of THE LEES has not materially changed since August 2022.
