POLICE HOUSE 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 two POLICE HOUSE sales from April 2001 and March 2022 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 2001 sale was for 14% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 14% above the HPI over time, until the March 2022 sale, where it falls to 2% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 2% above the HPI.

What might POLICE HOUSE be worth now?

POLICE HOUSE might now be worth an estimated £756,948.

This is based on house price inflation of 4.4%, between March 2022 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 4.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for POLICE HOUSE of £725,000 on 25th March 2022. For the value to have increased from £725,000 to £756,948 over the one year and three months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of POLICE HOUSE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Mid Sussex local authority area.
• The March 2022 sale price of £725,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of POLICE HOUSE has not materially changed since March 2022.
