20 ROCHESTER CLOSE 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 two 20 ROCHESTER CLOSE sales from July 2000 and October 2010 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 2000 sale was for 140% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 140% above the HPI over time, until the October 2010 sale, where it falls to 95% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 95% above the HPI.

What might 20 ROCHESTER CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 67.7%, between October 2010 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 67.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 20 ROCHESTER CLOSE of £600,000 on 7th October 2010. For the value to have increased from £600,000 to £1,006,298 over the thirteen years and ten months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
