4 SHEPHERDS CROFT 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 SHEPHERDS CROFT sales between August 2000 and September 2009 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 September 2006 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the September 2009 sale, where it rises to 22% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 22% above the HPI.

What might 4 SHEPHERDS CROFT be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 107.7%, between September 2009 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 107.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 4 SHEPHERDS CROFT of £500,000 on 25th September 2009. For the value to have increased from £500,000 to £1,038,319 over the fourteen years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
