2 PRINCES CRESCENT 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 two 2 PRINCES CRESCENT sales from August 1997 and February 2000 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 August 1997 sale was for 62% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 62% above the HPI over time, until the February 2000 sale, where it rises to 140% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 140% above the HPI.

What might 2 PRINCES CRESCENT be worth now?

2 PRINCES CRESCENT might now be worth an estimated £2,053,722.

This is based on house price inflation of 327.9%, between February 2000 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 327.9% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 PRINCES CRESCENT of £480,000 on 29th February 2000. For the value to have increased from £480,000 to £2,053,722 over the 23 years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 PRINCES CRESCENT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Brighton and Hove local authority area.
• The February 2000 sale price of £480,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 2 PRINCES CRESCENT has not materially changed since February 2000.
