The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mid Sussex local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 8 THE DAKINS sales from December 1996 and May 2013 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 1996 sale was for 12% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 12% below the HPI over time, until the May 2013 sale, where it falls to 26% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 26% below the HPI.
8 THE DAKINS might now be worth an estimated £549,516.
This is based on house price inflation of 71.7%, between May 2013 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Mid Sussex local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).
The 71.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 THE DAKINS of £320,000 on 13th May 2013. For the value to have increased from £320,000 to £549,516 over the ten years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:
