FIRCROFT Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Arun local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three FIRCROFT sales between September 1997 and March 2020 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 March 2017 sale was for 77% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 77% above the HPI over time, until the March 2020 sale, where it falls to 49% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% above the HPI.

What might FIRCROFT be worth now?

FIRCROFT might now be worth an estimated £858,690.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.8%, between March 2020 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 21.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for FIRCROFT of £705,000 on 5th March 2020. For the value to have increased from £705,000 to £858,690 over the five years and one month to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of FIRCROFT has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Arun local authority area.
• The March 2020 sale price of £705,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of FIRCROFT has not materially changed since March 2020.
