TANGLEWOOD 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 TANGLEWOOD sales from June 1997 and January 2001 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 1997 sale was for 38% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% above the HPI over time, until the January 2001 sale, where it rises to 49% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 49% above the HPI.

What might TANGLEWOOD be worth now?

TANGLEWOOD might now be worth an estimated £905,564.

This is based on house price inflation of 225.7%, between January 2001 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 225.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for TANGLEWOOD of £278,000 on 26th January 2001. For the value to have increased from £278,000 to £905,564 over the 22 years and one month to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of TANGLEWOOD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Worthing local authority area.
• The January 2001 sale price of £278,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of TANGLEWOOD has not materially changed since January 2001.
