WILD HEDGES 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 three WILD HEDGES sales between July 2000 and November 2013 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 January 2002 sale roughly matched the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks roughly in line with the HPI over time, until the November 2013 sale, where it falls to 16% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 16% below the HPI.

What might WILD HEDGES be worth now?

WILD HEDGES might now be worth an estimated £507,742.

This is based on house price inflation of 67.8%, between November 2013 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 67.8% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WILD HEDGES of £302,500 on 5th November 2013. For the value to have increased from £302,500 to £507,742 over the ten years and eleven months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WILD HEDGES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Worthing local authority area.
• The November 2013 sale price of £302,500 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WILD HEDGES has not materially changed since November 2013.
