DOVE HOUSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Chichester local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three DOVE HOUSE sales between November 1997 and March 2018 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 2011 sale was for 90% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 90% above the HPI over time, until the March 2018 sale, where it falls to 63% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 63% above the HPI.

What might DOVE HOUSE be worth now?

DOVE HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £1,151,658.

This is based on house price inflation of 15.7%, between March 2018 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Chichester local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 15.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for DOVE HOUSE of £995,000 on 22nd March 2018. For the value to have increased from £995,000 to £1,151,658 over the five years and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of DOVE HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Chichester local authority area.
• The March 2018 sale price of £995,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of DOVE HOUSE has not materially changed since March 2018.
