WESTFOLD Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Wealden local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two WESTFOLD sales from June 1996 and April 2012 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 1996 sale was for 18% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 18% above the HPI over time, until the April 2012 sale, where it falls to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.

What might WESTFOLD be worth now?

WESTFOLD might now be worth an estimated £507,972.

This is based on house price inflation of 69.4%, between April 2012 and February 2025, for detached houses, in the Wealden local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 69.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WESTFOLD of £299,950 on 17th April 2012. For the value to have increased from £299,950 to £507,972 over the thirteen years and two months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WESTFOLD has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Wealden local authority area.
• The April 2012 sale price of £299,950 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WESTFOLD has not materially changed since April 2012.
