HEATHER LEE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Worthing local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two HEATHER LEE sales from September 2009 and February 2015 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 September 2009 sale was for 50% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 50% above the HPI over time, until the February 2015 sale, where it falls to 43% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% above the HPI.

What might HEATHER LEE be worth now?

HEATHER LEE might now be worth an estimated £868,269.

This is based on house price inflation of 48.4%, between February 2015 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Worthing local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 48.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for HEATHER LEE of £585,000 on 3rd February 2015. For the value to have increased from £585,000 to £868,269 over the eight years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of HEATHER LEE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Worthing local authority area.
• The February 2015 sale price of £585,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of HEATHER LEE has not materially changed since February 2015.
