OLD AUTUMN COTTAGE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Mid Sussex local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four OLD AUTUMN COTTAGE sales between August 1996 and January 2018 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 April 2007 sale was for 16% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% below the HPI over time, until the January 2018 sale, where it rises to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.

What might OLD AUTUMN COTTAGE be worth now?

OLD AUTUMN COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £757,313.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.2%, between January 2018 and December 2024, for 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 21.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for OLD AUTUMN COTTAGE of £625,000 on 31st January 2018. For the value to have increased from £625,000 to £757,313 over the five years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of OLD AUTUMN COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Mid Sussex local authority area.
• The January 2018 sale price of £625,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of OLD AUTUMN COTTAGE has not materially changed since January 2018.
