SOUTH RIDGE 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 SOUTH RIDGE sales from July 2016 and November 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 July 2016 sale was for 16% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 16% above the HPI over time, until the November 2020 sale, where it rises to 39% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 39% above the HPI.

What might SOUTH RIDGE be worth now?

SOUTH RIDGE might now be worth an estimated £844,628.

This is based on house price inflation of 12.6%, between November 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 12.6% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SOUTH RIDGE of £750,000 on 11th November 2020. For the value to have increased from £750,000 to £844,628 over the three years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SOUTH RIDGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Worthing local authority area.
• The November 2020 sale price of £750,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of SOUTH RIDGE has not materially changed since November 2020.
