20 DOWNSIDE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Brighton and Hove local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 20 DOWNSIDE sales between October 1995 and April 2020 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 January 2016 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the April 2020 sale, where it rises to 38% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 38% above the HPI.

What might 20 DOWNSIDE be worth now?

The 21.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 20 DOWNSIDE of £625,000 on 14th April 2020. For the value to have increased from £625,000 to £757,799 over the three years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
