MALVERN COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Mid Sussex local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four MALVERN COTTAGE sales between January 1998 and August 2012 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 May 2004 sale was for 32% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 32% above the HPI over time, until the August 2012 sale, where it rises to 79% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 79% above the HPI.

What might MALVERN COTTAGE be worth now?

MALVERN COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £824,222.

This is based on house price inflation of 73.5%, between August 2012 and February 2025, for semi-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 73.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MALVERN COTTAGE of £475,000 on 28th August 2012. For the value to have increased from £475,000 to £824,222 over the thirteen years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MALVERN COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Mid Sussex local authority area.
• The August 2012 sale price of £475,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MALVERN COTTAGE has not materially changed since August 2012.
