4 PRINCES SQUARE 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 three 4 PRINCES SQUARE sales between March 1997 and February 2015 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 1997 sale was for 124% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 124% above the HPI over time, until the February 2015 sale, where it rises to 138% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 138% above the HPI.

What might 4 PRINCES SQUARE be worth now?

4 PRINCES SQUARE might now be worth an estimated £2,030,258.

This is based on house price inflation of 50.4%, between February 2015 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 50.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 PRINCES SQUARE of £1,350,000 on 20th February 2015. For the value to have increased from £1,350,000 to £2,030,258 over the eight years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 4 PRINCES SQUARE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Brighton and Hove local authority area.
• The February 2015 sale price of £1,350,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
