8 WALKER CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Eastbourne local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 8 WALKER CLOSE sales between November 1995 and September 1998 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 October 1997 sale was for 20% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 20% below the HPI over time, until the September 1998 sale, where it rises to 13% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 13% below the HPI.

What might 8 WALKER CLOSE be worth now?

This is based on house price inflation of 358.1%, between September 1998 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Eastbourne local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 358.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for 8 WALKER CLOSE of £99,000 on 30th September 1998. For the value to have increased from £99,000 to £453,516 over the 27 years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of 8 WALKER CLOSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Eastbourne local authority area.
