MONTAFON 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 MONTAFON sales from January 2008 and May 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 January 2008 sale was for 44% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 44% below the HPI over time, until the May 2020 sale, where it rises to 32% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 32% below the HPI.

What might MONTAFON be worth now?

MONTAFON might now be worth an estimated £412,053.

This is based on house price inflation of 16.1%, between May 2020 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 16.1% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for MONTAFON of £355,000 on 28th May 2020. For the value to have increased from £355,000 to £412,053 over the three years and five months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of MONTAFON has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Worthing local authority area.
• The May 2020 sale price of £355,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of MONTAFON has not materially changed since May 2020.
