2 THE CIRCUS Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Eastbourne local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 2 THE CIRCUS sales between November 1997 and May 2013 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 July 2002 sale was for 39% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 39% below the HPI over time, until the May 2013 sale, where it falls to 43% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% below the HPI.

What might 2 THE CIRCUS be worth now?

2 THE CIRCUS might now be worth an estimated £296,207.

This is based on house price inflation of 74.2%, between May 2013 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Eastbourne local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 74.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 2 THE CIRCUS of £170,000 on 31st May 2013. For the value to have increased from £170,000 to £296,207 over the ten years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 2 THE CIRCUS has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Eastbourne local authority area.
• The May 2013 sale price of £170,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
