SQUIRE 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 five SQUIRE COTTAGE sales between August 1995 and August 2019 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 March 2007 sale was for 8% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 8% below the HPI over time, until the August 2019 sale, where it falls to 23% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 23% below the HPI.

What might SQUIRE COTTAGE be worth now?

SQUIRE COTTAGE might now be worth an estimated £576,223.

This is based on house price inflation of 21.3%, between August 2019 and February 2025, 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 21.3% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SQUIRE COTTAGE of £475,000 on 5th August 2019. For the value to have increased from £475,000 to £576,223 over the six years and six months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SQUIRE COTTAGE has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Mid Sussex local authority area.
• The August 2019 sale price of £475,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of SQUIRE COTTAGE has not materially changed since August 2019.
