22 BACKWOODS LANE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mid Sussex local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 22 BACKWOODS LANE sales between December 2004 and March 2024 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 2006 sale was for 10% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 10% below the HPI over time, until the March 2024 sale, where it rises to 49% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% above the HPI.

What might 22 BACKWOODS LANE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 6.4%, between March 2024 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Mid Sussex local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 6.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 22 BACKWOODS LANE of £1,050,000 on 6th March 2024. For the value to have increased from £1,050,000 to £1,116,820 over the one year and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 22 BACKWOODS LANE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Mid Sussex local authority area.
• The March 2024 sale price of £1,050,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
