1 MARINE DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Lewes local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 1 MARINE DRIVE sales from April 2009 and July 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 April 2009 sale was for 3% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 3% below the HPI over time, until the July 2018 sale, where it rises to 19% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 19% above the HPI.

What might 1 MARINE DRIVE be worth now?

1 MARINE DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £699,275.

This is based on house price inflation of 12.8%, between July 2018 and December 2024, for 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 12.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 MARINE DRIVE of £620,000 on 17th July 2018. For the value to have increased from £620,000 to £699,275 over the five years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 1 MARINE DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Lewes local authority area.
• The July 2018 sale price of £620,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 1 MARINE DRIVE has not materially changed since July 2018.
