ABACUS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Lewes local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two ABACUS sales from July 2002 and November 2015 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 July 2002 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the November 2015 sale, where it rises to 82% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 82% above the HPI.

What might ABACUS be worth now?

ABACUS might now be worth an estimated £731,067.

This is based on house price inflation of 31.1%, between November 2015 and April 2026, for semi-detached houses, in the Lewes local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 31.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ABACUS of £557,500 on 25th November 2015. For the value to have increased from £557,500 to £731,067 over the eleven years and seven months to April 2026, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ABACUS has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Lewes local authority area.
• The November 2015 sale price of £557,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ABACUS has not materially changed since November 2015.
