OAKDENE 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 three OAKDENE sales between June 1996 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 June 2016 sale was for 5% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 5% above the HPI over time, until the September 2020 sale, where it rises to 30% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 30% above the HPI.

What might OAKDENE be worth now?

OAKDENE might now be worth an estimated £792,162.

This is based on house price inflation of 16.5%, between September 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 16.5% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for OAKDENE of £680,000 on 7th September 2020. For the value to have increased from £680,000 to £792,162 over the three years and nine months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of OAKDENE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Worthing local authority area.
• The September 2020 sale price of £680,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of OAKDENE has not materially changed since September 2020.
