WILLOW LEA 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 three WILLOW LEA sales between October 2000 and September 2016 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 2013 sale was for 46% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 46% below the HPI over time, until the September 2016 sale, where it rises to 43% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 43% below the HPI.

What might WILLOW LEA be worth now?

WILLOW LEA might now be worth an estimated £423,909.

This is based on house price inflation of 24.7%, between September 2016 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 24.7% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for WILLOW LEA of £340,000 on 30th September 2016. For the value to have increased from £340,000 to £423,909 over the nine years and seven months to February 2025, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of WILLOW LEA has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Mid Sussex local authority area.
• The September 2016 sale price of £340,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of WILLOW LEA has not materially changed since September 2016.
