The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Arun local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 FONTWELL CLOSE sales from May 1998 and August 2012 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 May 1998 sale was for 1% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 1% below the HPI over time, until the August 2012 sale, where it falls to 8% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 8% below the HPI.
8 FONTWELL CLOSE might now be worth an estimated £526,006.
This is based on house price inflation of 69.7%, between August 2012 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Arun local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 69.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 FONTWELL CLOSE of £310,000 on 2nd August 2012. For the value to have increased from £310,000 to £526,006 over the thirteen years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:
