MEROK 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 two MEROK sales from March 2005 and September 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 2005 sale was for 29% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 29% below the HPI over time, until the September 2020 sale, where it rises to 12% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 12% below the HPI.

What might MEROK be worth now?

MEROK might now be worth an estimated £633,575.

This is based on house price inflation of 10.2%, between September 2020 and February 2025, 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 10.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MEROK of £575,000 on 25th September 2020. For the value to have increased from £575,000 to £633,575 over the five years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MEROK has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Chichester local authority area.
• The September 2020 sale price of £575,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MEROK has not materially changed since September 2020.
