1 LAWSON CLOSE 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 eight 1 LAWSON CLOSE sales between December 2000 and April 2021 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 May 2017 sale was for 5% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% below the HPI over time, until the April 2021 sale, where it falls to 10% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 10% below the HPI.

What might 1 LAWSON CLOSE be worth now?
