17 VARNDEAN DRIVE 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 17 VARNDEAN DRIVE sales between October 1995 and January 2019 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 March 2008 sale was for 4% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 4% above the HPI over time, until the January 2019 sale, where it falls to 15% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 15% below the HPI.

What might 17 VARNDEAN DRIVE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 17%, between January 2019 and December 2024, 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 17% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 17 VARNDEAN DRIVE of £620,000 on 28th January 2019. For the value to have increased from £620,000 to £725,491 over the four years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
