39 THE DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Adur local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 39 THE DRIVE sales between June 1997 and April 2018 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 December 1999 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the April 2018 sale, where it falls to 34% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 34% below the HPI.

What might 39 THE DRIVE be worth now?

39 THE DRIVE might now be worth an estimated £416,076.

This is based on house price inflation of 22.4%, between April 2018 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Adur local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 22.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 39 THE DRIVE of £340,000 on 19th April 2018. For the value to have increased from £340,000 to £416,076 over the five years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 39 THE DRIVE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Adur local authority area.
• The April 2018 sale price of £340,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of 39 THE DRIVE has not materially changed since April 2018.
