MISSENDEN LODGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Brighton and Hove local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three MISSENDEN LODGE sales between August 1997 and July 2017 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 December 2010 sale was for 82% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 82% above the HPI over time, until the July 2017 sale, where it rises to 83% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 83% above the HPI.

What might MISSENDEN LODGE be worth now?

MISSENDEN LODGE might now be worth an estimated £1,561,383.

This is based on house price inflation of 23.4%, between July 2017 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Brighton and Hove local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 23.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MISSENDEN LODGE of £1,265,000 on 26th July 2017. For the value to have increased from £1,265,000 to £1,561,383 over the six years and seven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The July 2017 sale price of £1,265,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
