20 BIRKDALE CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Worthing local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 20 BIRKDALE CLOSE sales from May 2012 and May 2017 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 2012 sale was for 17% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 17% below the HPI over time, until the May 2017 sale, where it rises to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.

What might 20 BIRKDALE CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 32.1%, between May 2017 and February 2025, for semi-detached houses, in the Worthing local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 32.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 20 BIRKDALE CLOSE of £290,000 on 5th May 2017. For the value to have increased from £290,000 to £383,075 over the eight years and three months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
