1 THE HEIGHTS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Brighton and Hove local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 1 THE HEIGHTS sales between June 1996 and January 2005 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 2000 sale was for 57% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 57% above the HPI over time, until the January 2005 sale, where it falls to 49% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% above the HPI.

What might 1 THE HEIGHTS be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 131.9%, between January 2005 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Brighton and Hove local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 131.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 1 THE HEIGHTS of £557,000 on 18th January 2005. For the value to have increased from £557,000 to £1,291,565 over the nineteen years and eleven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
