1 LEEWARD CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Worthing local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 1 LEEWARD CLOSE sales between November 2003 and November 2014 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 February 2012 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the November 2014 sale, where it falls to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.

What might 1 LEEWARD CLOSE be worth now?

1 LEEWARD CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £368,685.

This is based on house price inflation of 51.1%, between November 2014 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Worthing local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 51.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 LEEWARD CLOSE of £244,000 on 14th November 2014. For the value to have increased from £244,000 to £368,685 over the nine years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 LEEWARD CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Worthing local authority area.
• The November 2014 sale price of £244,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
