26 WEST COMMON 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 26 WEST COMMON sales between December 1995 and November 2002 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 August 2001 sale was for 63% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 63% above the HPI over time, until the November 2002 sale, where it rises to 91% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 91% above the HPI.

What might 26 WEST COMMON be worth now?

26 WEST COMMON might now be worth an estimated £1,425,380.

This is based on house price inflation of 131.8%, between November 2002 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 131.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 26 WEST COMMON of £615,000 on 22nd November 2002. For the value to have increased from £615,000 to £1,425,380 over the 23 years and nine months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The November 2002 sale price of £615,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
