3 ROYLES CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Brighton and Hove local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 3 ROYLES CLOSE sales from July 1997 and July 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 July 1997 sale was for 123% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 123% above the HPI over time, until the July 2020 sale, where it falls to 4% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 4% below the HPI.

What might 3 ROYLES CLOSE be worth now?

3 ROYLES CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £816,150.

This is based on house price inflation of 16.6%, between July 2020 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Brighton and Hove local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 16.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 3 ROYLES CLOSE of £700,000 on 31st July 2020. For the value to have increased from £700,000 to £816,150 over the three years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 3 ROYLES CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Brighton and Hove local authority area.
• The July 2020 sale price of £700,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
